Free Dynamic Flash Gallery Template Preview

FREE Photo Gallery Website Template

I download this Free Flash Gallery Template and it’s pretty sweet.

You can preview the gallery here

It comes from TemplateMonster.com which is a trusted source. I’m an affiliate with them so I have access to their free content. If you want to become an affiliate and offer amazing templates to your website visitors you can sign up on my other website.. TheWebdesignStudio.com. Plus, That would be sweet for me as well! A Win, win situation!

So..anyway..It’s a flash gallery and it includes music but you can remove it if you don’t like music on your websites (like me) but there is the ability to turn it on or off on the gallery page itself.

The download also includes a bunch of free graphics in .psd format including..

20 free company logos, 11 free .psd buttons, 3 .psd window frames.

Gallery Description:

This is a dynamic Flash website template, it is possible to change the appearance of the gallery by selecting from the choice of four included which can be set easily from the admin panel. There are plenty of other useful settings such as width of small and big photos, management of comments to the pictures, etc…

System requirements
=====================================================================
- Hosting with PHP (if an admin part of the gallery is used)
- Flash Player 9 (if an admin part of the gallery is used)
- Adobe Flash 8 (if the .FLA file is used for modifications)
- Adobe Photoshop 7+; (for editing the design)

The gallery itself contains a set of images arranged in the order you prefer (rows of small pictures, previews of a larger image) which also has a Zoom button for a very large close-up view of the image.

Includes an Admin interface for ease of use.

Websites with a Dynamic Flash Gallery of this kind will definitely be a great help for photographers or artists who want to display their works on the Internet and want this to be done in the most elegant and attractive way.

I don’t use pixel fonts very often but when I do I always have only a few to pick from. I needed to use one recently and I needed to find some new ones to add to my limited collection. This is what I found..enjoy! If you know of some that I didn’t list here feel free to add them in a comment.

Pixel Fonts — Free Font Sites

• DaFont.com —
  DaFont.com has some great free pixel fonts.
  Just do a search (top right of screen) for “pixel” to find them. I like Snoot.org px10 by Divide by Zero.
• Wanted Fonts —
  Lots of free fonts. On left side navigation you’ll see categories.
  Look for “pixilated” and search through the collection.
  “Endless Showroom” looks nice.
• 04 —
  On the front page click on “extra” and then
  you’ll see “bitmap font” and “font ps.tt” - which are free downloads.
  This is a very nice collection of pixel fonts.
• HighFonts.com—
  Another nice site with a great collection of
  free fonts you can download.
