It was about time ... but here it is!! FLAPI viewer 0.7 beta

Woohoo,

Our goal for this version was to make our viewer as bug free as possible. We can proudly say this is our first relatively stable version. But it's still possible you'll run in to some bugs. It's important that you post the bugs at our support wiki, so we can get to our first totally bugfree version 1.0 out !!

So what's fixed/added in this version :

• We completely rewrote the sizing system. The viewer now chooses the best image available looking at the size of your flash movie. So if the viewer has the size of 400 px* 400 px he'll take the flickr image of 500px longests side.
  If your viewer is bigger then the original flickr image he won't size the image, but just center the biggest image available and center it.
  
• background behind the thumbnailbar
• give your photoset list a title
• Bugs fixed: sizing, flipping thumbnails, photoset list and much more.
• and more ...
  

If you can help us, our support wiki still needs a lot of work. Faq, Help so we can provide some decent support. If you can help us out with the wiki or flapi viewer itself, don't hesitate to contact us.

Community Wiki

We've set up a wiki for the flapi viewer. It will be easy to add information to the help, bugs, ...

It would be great if we could get input from the community, for now it's still very very empty. If someone wants to work on it. Just do it !!! We'll be monitoring it closely.

An bugfree update for the flapi viewer is coming soon ...

Thanks,

Mission accomplished...

well actually not :p But we had today our end presentation of our school assignment (FLAPI). So don't worry the school assignment is finished but we're still going to update flapi viewer. We don't want you guys to get stuck with a viewer that is full of bugs. Now our first priority will be: make the first bug free version. I can't give you a time schedule yet but we'll keep you updated.

These things we're definatelly going to fix:

1. Blog support, multiple instances of the viewer in one page same swf.
2. Flipping thumbsbar
3. Slideshow funky on/off behaviour
4. next previous with arrow keys still very buggy. fix it !
   
5. implement transitions
6. option for background color thumbs

Some other news, we have made a small flapi website. Just for the community purpose and not to get bombed with questions the whole time. You can find it at http://flapi.f4l.be
We still need to implement a small forum, community portal.

If you want to help us out with the flapi site(faq, help, community) or flapi viewer itself, please don't hesitate to contact us. You're more than welcome.

For the record:
- our presentation of today ( Dutch )

See ya ;)
