Hi,

I've installed suprsidr's Cooliris/Piclens Slideshow v2.1.0 and have been reading the cooliris.com documentation (see http://www.cooliris.com/developer/reference/flashvars/), but can't seem to figure out how to make a specific mod. It seems like I should be able to change the black background of the wall to either white, light or dark, but don't know where to put "style: white", or something like that.

Does anyone know? Since the slideshow is done the javascript way, I'm a little lost...

See example of site here if necessary: http://cmnycakes.com/gallery//?g2_itemId=25

Thanks!

You can add an entire background image to the embeddable wall but not the browser plugin - see my example (click the "new embeddable3D wall" link)
For the browser plugin, you can set your BG image in Cooliris settings, but its only for you.
gallery2/modules/slideshow/templates/Slideshow.tpl line~25:

    var flashvars = {ldelim}
        feed: "{$Slideshow.embeddableMediaRssUrl}"
    {rdelim};

Suprsidr...thanks for the quick reply!

I'm still not sure how to add the background image or the style to the feed. The cooliris documentation just gives methodology for the non-javascript method. Should the lines above be appended as follows?

Quote:
var flashvars = {ldelim}
feed: "{$Slideshow.embeddableMediaRssUrl}&style=light"
{rdelim};

or

Quote:
var flashvars = {ldelim}
feed: "{$Slideshow.embeddableMediaRssUrl}",
style: "light"
{rdelim};

Because neither worked...

more like:

    var flashvars = {ldelim}
        feed: "{$Slideshow.embeddableMediaRssUrl}",
        style: "light",
        backgroundColor: "#010010",
        backgroundImage: "http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mysite.com%2Fimages%2Fmyimage.jpg"
    {rdelim};
