Make Your Photography Site More Enchanting Using Flash Design
Do have a penchant for photography, and want people to appreciate your work? If the answer is yes, then you should have a photography site highlighting your work. Then, how well it is designed? I am
asking this question as design and graphics of such sites matter a lot.
One of the best ways to spice up it up is by using Flash design technology. If you know how to use it, then attracting visitors to your web pages won’t be a problem. Besides making it attractive, you also have to optimize it for the search engines.
Let’s have a look at how a photography website can be made more appealing to users.
Presenting Your Work Using Flash
Your photographic skills will be best introduced with Flash animation. This is important to make the snaps more impressive. Make sure that they are protected with watermarks as there are thousands of tricksters out there who are ready to plagiarize your work. The introduction should be powerful enough to let visitors get an interesting glimpse of your snaps.
Use A Flash Dynamic Photo Gallery
The main portfolio page should include a Flash dynamic photo gallery. This page is very significant as it demonstrates your entire work. With an image gallery, you will be able to separate different photos into individual albums. You can categorize albums according to date and types.
Include some less important pictures having higher resolution but without watermarks. This is important to let users better evaluate your work. You need not worry as the most important samples are
already watermarked.
Include Mouse Hover Effects
Mouse over effects make web pages more intriguing. Interesting effects can be created when a visitor moves the mouse pointer and places it on some elements. For example, if the mouse touches a photo, the background color might change or an image will be enlarged to give visitors a better view.
Even a one line text describing the photo can appear when the mouse pointer touches it. This is more effective if the image is of some historical structure. Visitors will get an idea about it by viewing the text.
Make Wildlife Images Intriguing with 3D and Sound Effects
You might have come across two types of Flash sites, i.e. 2D and 3D. You can make use of 3D for specific snaps. For example, wild life photos of tigers, leopards, colorful macaws, giant elephants, and pythons can be made more lively using 3D animation effects.
Visitors browsing through an image gallery of wild animals will get a feeling as if they are part of it. Ensure that apt animation effects are added using 3D technology. A Flash website design expert will never over emphasize on the animations. Simple and subtle effects will make such visuals look more natural.
You can even integrate intriguing sound effects to create a better ambiance. The hissing of a snake or the growling of a tiger will create a more realistic appeal. Make sure the sound effect you pick sounds natural, and not unreal.
