I've been looking for a fading images script for a long time now and i think i found what i need.
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/fadeinslideshow.htm
So i added this in the head of index.template.php:
<script type="text/javascript">

and this in a javascript/html block:
<script type="text/javascript">
//new fadeshow(IMAGES_ARRAY_NAME, slideshow_width, slideshow_height, borderwidth, delay, pause (0=no, 1=yes), optionalRandomOrder)
new fadeshow(fadeimages, 140, 225, 0, 3000, 1, "R")
new fadeshow(fadeimages2, 140, 225, 0, 3000, 0)
</script>
It seems to work but the whole content(every single word) of the site is 3 times bigger than normal now :-\
I really like a script like this, so could anyone help me out here?
Thanks
Ok i got it working, don't ask me how i did it but it works nice ;D
I put this code in a javascript/html block:

You can use these images as links to another place. Only change the paths.
Nice job! I'm sure others will find this useful too.
Thank you for sharing this :)
I must test this i think :)
Can we see what it looks like?
Sure, It was still on my testsite(easyphp) and i don't think you can see that :)
But now i put it on my real site. Top right block called worldcup ;)
It's really easy to use and what i like most is that fading stops when mouseover and link opens in new window. What do i need more? :2funny:

Thank you for sharing this :)

G6 is this the code you have for those images on your front page? If so it rocks!!
No, my gallery isent this code here, i have a flash gallery snippet there.
The code for my gallery you can find here in ChitChat section posted by Ray and itÂÃ,´s called photofolio
Or you can download it from my download section on my site. :)
ok cool thanks for the info G6
Is there something I`m doing wrong ?? I placed the code ion a jave/html block, put it on the from page and changed the bg fade color to black and changed 2 links to a couple pics I have on another webpage. Should the links be from my site that this code is on. ???
EDIT: It doesn`t seem to work for FF but I do get 2 box`s showing with x`s in them in IE

Did you add your own paths to the code? and also, did you change the image names to fit your images?

ok Bigguy you have to edit all this to fit what you want.
the firstsection and the second section is to set up 2 fading windows. if you are going to show 2 slides show it is just showing you how.
ok 1st section section
var fadeimages=new Array()
//SET IMAGE PATHS. Extend or contract array as needed
fadeimages[0]=["url to you photo's", "", ""] //plain image syntax
fadeimages[1]=["photo2.jpg", "http://www.cssdrive.com", ""] //image with link syntax
fadeimages[2]=["photo3.jpg", "http://www.javascriptkit.com", "_new"] //image with link and target syntax
ok here it goes: the green area is where your photos are located i.e http://www.somewhere.com/pics/1.jpg
ignore the red area it is just telling you info.
know if you want people to click on the picture to go to a web address photo2 line shows you how to set it up
and the third one is just showing you how to nake it go to a web address in a new window
example of mine

I tested in IE and FF. Works just fine for me.
It should work when you follow the instructions from ^Pork^ . :)
I uploaded my images folder (worldcup) in the directory where i have Sources, Themes, Packages, avatars, etc.. and just changed paths in the code.
So for me it looks like this: public_html/worldcup/WC.jpg
and my code is like this:
var fadeimages=new Array()
//SET IMAGE PATHS. Extend or contract array as needed
fadeimages[0]=["worldcup/WC.jpg", "http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/splash.html", "_new"] //plain image syntax
fadeimages[1]=["worldcup/WC3.jpg", "http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/splash.html", "_new"] //image with link syntax
fadeimages[2]=["worldcup/WC1.jpg", "http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/splash.html", "_new"] //image with link and target syntax
fadeimages[3]=["worldcup/WC2.jpg", "http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/splash.html", "_new"] //image with link and target syntax
fadeimages[4]=["worldcup/WC4.jpg", "http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/splash.html", "_new"] //image with link and target syntax
var fadebgcolor="BLACK"
Hope this helps! :)
Ok cool I think I got it now. So really if all I want is pics to fade I just repeat the first line and put a url to the image in right. ??
Just thought I would say. I have this fading 1 pic right now just to sort of test it and the news fader in smf doesn`t seem to want to fade with this.
Oh hey, this would be one arse kicking effect for a rotating banner, am I right? :P
