can i go now? i'll be doing a 'moon dance' by next friday… dancing naked around the fire like a pagan. i have a nice big tent and all the equipment.
p.s. i didn't get the flashvideos to work so i am stopping here for now.
when i come back from 'big sur', i'll figure out a way.
you won't see all these buttons because i trimmed it. all that is missing is the tv, theatre and movie flashvideos. click on the title the fall of a sparrow to go directly to the book. or follow link at the bottom of 'auto-biography'.
it's the best i can do for now. i have to get better tech help from flvproducer and mediamenu player, or 1and1.com needs to enable flv.exe,(flashvideo), even 'irfanview' opens flv. it's just like you-tube only the player is hosted by the website. it looks good. but i can't make it work. i have three players which play many videos each on my computer but i keep getting this message 'error loading file' in the screen window. it's funny, though, the link to the program creator works. so i deleted the links because it looks stupid.
anyway, please let me know what happens when you browse around. it's very complicated with a 'powerpoint' presentation. i guess if people don't have 'powerpoint' from microsoft office, they won't see the slides. but the same material almost, (without preamble "treatment"), on the title of the book. 'the fall of a sparrow' button.
finally, any suggestions?

It came out well. That´s for sure 🙂
he hasn't seen it yet. he's off in the mountains with his wife. he'll be back in a couple of days. he's seen parts of it. i think he was beginning to think i'd never launch it. :smile:thanks for commenting. so glad you got around without stumbling blocks. that's been my constant experience trying to build this. :happy:
Great job Scott. Very easy to get around :up:Wasn´t he happy for the result ?
nic,you are the first to see it… that's cool. it's comforting to hear your comment. 🙂
You put the artist in centre. I like that. My good friend Rune made my homepage very simple and easy for the users. I´m very thankful for that.
I just went through and read the site. Well done :up:Now I know a lot more about Mitchell Ryan. I hope some of the things he writes about are less depressing, though; however, seem the book will be a good read.
Looks good Scott. Except the PowerPoint pages automatically advance right when I'm in the middle of reading a page. Are they supposed to? I read slow I guess. I thought the reader just clicked for the next page. I had to do a couple of PPT projects for a computer class three years ago but I doubt I'd remember much.
There is a program called "iSpring" which changes Powerpoint to a Flash presentation. Sometimes Giveawayoftheday gives such programs away for free.If you go to their site and find the info about iSpring, then in the comments people always tell about free programs that do the same as the program that is offered.Hope this helps.
good advice mom, that was what i was hoping for… some tips from friends with more experience. i'll check it out. i knew it was possible because someone even sent me an email that was 'powerpoint' and you just clicked it and off it went…. pam, sorry about that page thing. when i opened it in opera i had complete control. but that's because i have 'powerpoint' that's why i gave the warning… explorer only. in explorer you have a choice to scroll through the pages or run the slides. anyway, all the same material except the breakdown of the book is on the tail of 'autobiography' or by clicking on the title. "the fall of a sparrow." thanks for the visit.
scott, since you asked . . . . i enjoyed the slideshow and was able to load it just fine from my opera browser. i do not have powerpoint, rather the freebee (office pro ?)there are keys (up and down arrow, right and left) that work to control certain aspects of the view.the page up and down, end and home also control the view.the only problem is i had to experiment to get the slideshow to view at my pace and not the pace established by the program. sometimes i like to read and re-read certain portions of a page to make sure i understand what i first read quickly.this is a very complicated slideshow. it is very well presented and the material is very interesting, imo.thanks for the opportunity to view it and the ability to comment on it. might i suggest that you step out of the scott mode and into the viewer mode. leave your home base and go to a public place like the library and view the presentation as just me with the equiptment available to the public. maybe that will give you a better idea of what you (as the producer) need to change or improve on. try being onebluebox — does that make any sense? deborah.you are very talented scott!!!!!!!!
deborah,yes, that makes a lot of sense.in powerpoint there are three ways to produce the slideshow: as if there was a narrator presenting the slides and clicking through them. the one i settled on is called 'as a kiosk'. this one would, if looped just keep running at a certain speed. i used 12 seconds. that's too long for the short pages and too short for the long pages. the third one is browsed by an individual.i really appreciate the 'feedback' thank you.i could go to the library and have the experience you had.but it's not necessary. i can deduce that changing it to 'presentation with a speaker' will be an improvement. no speaker is necessary, and the 'viewer' can simply click to change the page.thanks for making helping me solve this one. :happy: ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
