Using Silverlight To Add A Photo Album To Your Website

by Amanda Wong on October 7, 2009

It is very common for people nowadays to add in photo albums and image galleries as a website feature. According to your own wishes, photo album can be added as a sub-page, or it can make up the whole website, just like a photographer website.

There are numerous of free and commercial softwares to choose from when you want to build your own image gallery or Silverlight video gallery. The requirements of such softwares vary among different users. There are professional photographers whose clients will be viewing their work, as well as amateurs who are looking for fun, and people who share photos within their social circles.

Photo galleries also serve as a great tool for people who need to sell their products or services. For personal users who do not demand a professional website, there are a lot of photo sharing websites that are very user-friendly and costless to use. However, if you are concerned about security or privacy problems, you might want to have your own website for the photo gallery. This way, you do not have to upload your photos to a third-party website and your photo could then be protected most easily.

If you are searching for the perfect photo gallery software and find JavaScript and PHP way too complex to handle, Silverlight would be the best choice. It is quick and simple. It is something that not only programmers, but most business site owners and webmasters can pick up within a short period of time.

Within a few clicks on your Window desktop, you can create a Silverlight gallery using a Silverlight photo galleries software. Afterwards, you can directly upload the files to your own hosting account. Just add a new page to your website and then you are ready to add in a photo gallery. There should be countless photo gallery templates available from your photo gallery software. Choose one which pleases you and start browsing your image folder or image files. The photo album software is computerized to copy these files and place them into your Silverlight photo album.

You can always add in animation effects to give the Silverlight photo album a lift. Most of the Silverlight image album creators let users choose their own music and color theme for their digital photo collection. After the brilliant transformation, the Silverlight web album can be uploaded to the user’s website or blog with ftp program.

Although some web hosting companies offer free and easy-to-use applications for image galleries, one disadvantage of using those applications is that you would have to stay with one web hosting company in order to keep your Silverlight albums. If you switch host, you will lose all your Silverlight albums and you would need to rebuild them from scratch again.

Thus, it is recommended that you should use your own Silverlight software. Just install the software on your computer, create a photo album using the software and then upload the photo album to your blog or website. This way, you no longer have to depend on any web hosting company to manage your images.

What Should I Choose? Adobe Flash Or Microsoft Silverlight?

by Bonita Li on October 7, 2009

Flash technology is a free software provided by Adobe which is famous for its software specialized in photo and video editing. Countless websites are using this technology to let their users watch videos online.

According to New York Times, Adobe is going to make an announcement at the upcoming National Association of Broadcasters convention which would be held in Las Vegas, announcing that Flash would soon be extended to televisions.

This extension is beneficial to the users as they can enjoy the same videos not only on their PCs or phones but also on TV screens. As Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen expected, televisions and set top boxes which support the Flash format may probably be launched into the US market at a later time in 2009.

Bud Albers, the CTO of Disney, showed his company’s support to Flash on the TV by saying “Coming generations of consumers clearly expect to get their content wherever they want on it, on any device, when they want it. This gets us where we want to go.”

Flash is Adobe’s most profitable technology in the moment. Adobe reported an income of $871.8 million in 2008 and a revenue of $3.6 billion. Flash technology is employed in 80% of web videos and 98% of all computers have Flash installed. By letting media creators make Flash video and design applications, the software sold is generating tremendous profit for the company.

In view of the huge success of Flash, Microsoft introduced a new technology called Silverlight as an alternative for Flash. One of the selling points of Silverlight is that it supports HD 1080p video contents better.

“I can’t imagine what could be more important on a television than high video quality.” Microsoft’s Brad Becker, who is a former Adobe executive, stated the vitality of HD capability on TV.

Adobe Flash, having almost no direct competitor for years, finally faces some challenges as Microsoft joins the competition of bridging the gap between computers and televisions with the introduction of Silverlight.

Include Some Flash Animations Onto Your Website

by Carol Cheung on October 1, 2009

It may be considered as a child’s play to increase the number of visitors to a website today. Considering how the search engines are strategically optimized these days, it is fairly easy to get gobs of visitors instantly to a new website.

The real difficulty is what you should do to make visitors stay once they visit your website. It is also essential to make them return to your website and be your loyal customers.

The web design plays a deciding role here. Besides being user-friendly, a successful web design should also be appealing. To create an appealing web design is much more difficult than to achieve a user-friendly one.

Thanks to the invention of flash animation in website design, users can now easily create some attractive websites. Flash animation not only make your website look more appealing, it also has a lot of other advantages. Keep reading and you will get the idea of 3 other significant effects of applying flash animations to your websites.

1. In the past, flash animations were not crawled by the search engines. However, the advanced search engine systems now can recognize flash animated websites and make them appear in the search results. These websites will be on the top of the dominant search engines’ priority list in the future, said by the search engine optimization professionals. So it is advantageous to develop flash animated web design now.

2. Websites that only include text and still images are difficult to create interaction with visitors, as visitors are only able to read the attached information. This increases the probability of visitors leaving without return. Flash animations, on the other hand, allows visitors to interact with the website. As a result, visitors will be more amazed and will be more interested to browse your remaining pages.

3. Among the numerous websites you find online these days, it is crucial that a website stands out in order to catch attention. Flash animated websites are still not very popular. The traditional layout with stationary text and images still dominates the field. You sure want your website to look dashing and adding flash animations would help a great deal. Your website will be full of life!

Flash Animations are right there ready for you. You can find many flash web design templates which are offered by professional web design companies in the market. Your first step is to choose your right template and modify it to meet your own needs.

Attractive Flash Web Sites

by Bonita Li on September 29, 2009

The question is often raised during meetings with managers and business top dogs: Is it alright to have a flash animated web site? How do we use Adobe Flash properly to build a web site?

Flash is a software for creating graphic-based animation that can help a website become richer and more interactive. Flash is a great tool for creating online training modules, product demonstrations and other types of contents that require interaction. However, one major drawback of Flash is that search engines, including Google, cannot understand the contents of the website if it is all written using Flash. As a result, the search engine’s ranking of such a website would be greatly affected.

What is the meaning of ‘index’? When you can left-click the text on a web site and see it highlighted in blue after dragging over it, the content is classified as ‘indexable’. This is to say that the highlighted text and images or graphics of the site are located in various ‘layers’. Only then can the text-based content be indexed by search engines, such as Google.

So, what exactly is Indexing? It is the process that Google uses to scan the important details of a website. Google would then store the details in their database for Google users to search websites by keywords. If you create the entire website using Flash only, the text on your web page would be layered into the graphics and Google would then not be able to index your website.

In the old days, it is completely impossible for Google to index content written using Flash. Although there are news saying that Google and Adobe are working towards the goal of making content written using Flash more indexable, there are no test results on whether the attempt is successful or not. Therefore, it is of your best interest to incorporate text-based content in your website and avoid using Flash to create your entire web page.

Even though most people cannot resist the attractive appearance and the usefulness of Flash websites, these websites post a needless obstruction to Google as Google mainly seeks for text-based content.

Some websites may have two versions for users – “HTML Site” and “Flash Web Site”. It can solve the problem of Google indexing but it also leads to another problem. With two versions, the web owner needs to govern two different websites and this creates excess burdens on the owner.

Flash has its own merits, but unfortunately also its downsides. What we are suggesting here is that you integrate Flash components into an HTML site. In this way, you will still be able to benefit from the interactivity and attractiveness of Flash, as well as letting Google index the text-based contents and put you in a higher rank under their search results. People who visit your site will not miss out on the stunning design. Visitors will continue to increase since your site is now indexable. Would that not be the best way to resolve all the complications?
