[koorb]

With a little too much time on my hands I had a bit of a play around with some ideas for my site, just playing with PS filters/brushes realy, site would be much more refined-- if I ever get round to do it properly --anyway your comments, opinions, criticisms etc.

Thanks :love:! The font looks great.

[.soulty]

nice, i like the second one as well. :)

[koorb]

I was thinking about using the second one with a flash page turn effect, and have it as an actual book.

[koorb]

something like this :D (only needs a LOT of tidying up - just a test)

You using Pixelwits page flip? I did something similar a couple months ago here (http://specialcolin.250free.com/PageFlip2.swf) Ah. the memories ;P I really like number 2 in the first post, thats killer work.

[REEF·]

That's great, but I just think that page flip is overdone ;).

[McGuffin]

It was an experiment, wasn't actually going to use it for anything. ;P

[REEF·]

I was talking to koorb :to:.

[koorb]

Thanks ppl - much apreciated :D

ah, great minds Colin ;)

Sharif - You think my pagefips ott ? well I wouldnt have the same textures on every page, and the shadows (I hope) will fit to the page. And I was realy only thinking like, front page, turn page to portfolio or something not the entire site. I'll have to see. Thanks all keep the input coming :D

looks very good. I have a script (page turn) that a friend of mine developed for me....you can see it here. I will be making it available for free very soon....so if interested let me know.

[koorb]

that works realy well DDD. The script I used, I think was mentioned her at some point.

I like it especially, cos you can grab the page anywhere, any corner. The reason the shadows are weird is I quickly put it together, the page graphics are a tad smaller that the script, and silly me, I left the drop shadow on the page texture, so looks odd too.

[McGuffin]

Koorb, I disabled some of that in mine, I can send you the .fla if I have it laying around somewhere if you want, to see what I did. I'm supposing we're using the same one too, unless you developed that yourself.

koorb
I had used that script too, but ran into problems when I wanted to embed movies that required a click because it would activate the page turn.....Mine you can set the hot spot for the page turn and a bunch of other parameters by XML....pretty slick. But your script works very good.

[koorb]

but ran into problems when I wanted to embed movies that required a click Hmmm, I will have think about that, I had some other plans for page flip thanks for the heads up, I havent realy looked into the script yet but if i can change the hotspots, that would be cool.
