Natalie,

I am a photographer and have been working on a portfolio design for my work. I keep running into template design and tool issues. I started with a template while I was learning how everything worked and eventually started from scratch by version 3. I can't seem to figure out a way to get a pause button on the slide shows. There is a stop button on the music players, is there a way to have my images in a slide show and have the user pause, without clicking on the image itself? This is the version that has that: Wix.com - Website built by manroy9 based on Photo Focus . I created version 4 to try to by pass that design issue: Wix.com - Website built by manroy9 based on Photo Focus but with the thumbnails, I found that I couldn't make them any smaller than they are now. I would like to have the ability to size them to whatever size I deem appropriate. Is there a way to override the size restriction? What I was also hoping for was that if someone clicks on an image and it get enlarged, if the back ground can get darkened, so all the focus would be on the specific image.

Thanks for your help,

Roy

How can I load a background page that I have designed so it appears the same time as the rest of my main page. Right now the background takes much longer to see than other information on the main page. Thanks for your help!!!

Hi Natalia - I see you have a great eye plus plenty of experience and was wondering if you are designing using only Wix or are you still utilizing other platforms for your clients? I am moving into design myself and have had a great response but a bit apprehensive in the business of only using Wix. It is just too easy! lol Any tips or insights you can give would be greatly appreciated - De Anne AllBiz Web Support
