Pro Slideshow?

Aug 13, 2012 8:01 PM

Hi guys,

 

The easiest slideshow platform that keeps coming up here on Adobe is the Jquery javascript library for CMS's. The problem arises when people like myself try to style these things to a professional standard, with virtually no javascript or css knowledge at all.

 

Is it possible?

 

There are a couple of good short cut options I have found:

 

One

"Touch Content Slider for WordPress" called - Royal Slider.

Apparently it is available for Dreamweaver:

Two

Slidebox "Slider" Tutorial for Jquery

http://manos.malihu.gr/slidebox-jquery-banner-rotator

.

I am sure both these options will serve well but I am a bit unsure on my favorite, Royal slider...

It's sexy, doesn't cost much and says it's cross platform...

 

But...

What are the chances ending up with just a Javascript library and a UI limited to WordPress?

There are lots of downloads but no reviews for the Dreamweaver version.....

 

Failing that, would it be better to go with Slidebox and play around with the css script?

Anyway sorry if some of my questions are intuitive, I am a newb. Thanks for your time and I give my regards in advance.

 

Josh
