Virtual Trips with Flash Panoramas

[joantna]

Dear Friends,
this is the link to my website, where virtual trips around Spain will be displayed. Panoramas are displayed using 'Flashpanoramas'. The web is almost finished, and I thougth that some comments of expert people could be very helpful:

Hi José

I actually considered moving to Spain with my wife - so it is great to see your site. I look forward to seeing your siet grow with even more tours.

When I landed on the site, I wanted to scroll down using the mouse wheel. Unfortunately this was not possible. It just zoomed in/out on the initial panorama.

Otherwise I am not sure what you are looking for? What do you want us to comment about? The site/layout or the panoramas?

Best regards
Morten

Hi Morten,
thanks for the reply. Well, I wanted comments in general, like the one you have made about the scrolling wheel. Aything will be welcome (about the site itself and about the panoramas).

I hope the site will grow soon, I have lots of new panoramas ready to be uploaded.

Best regards

(If you move to Spain and need help or information don't hesitate to contact me)

I think you need navigation buttons. People won't go looking at the help page you have to make it idiot-proof. Nice clean, simple site design though, is it built on something like wordpress or is it your own work?

Hi Adrian,
I agree with you. After a few days I have seen that most people don't how to continue the navigation. I must think on how to 'help' because nobody has entered the help page :-)

I made the design by hand, didn't use wordpress. I downloaded a CSS layout from 'bluerobot.com' and reworked it.

Thanks for you comment.

Jose: I really like the text that comes up when you move your mouse over the buttons on you pano. Is it a imagefile that you "show" on mouse over or is it "text"???
If its a imagefile i understand how its done but if it is text I would really like to know how you do it...

Hi Peter,
I used the XML file that Adrian published here http://http://flashpanoramas.com/forum/showthread.php?t=261.

I adapted it and you can find a sample here: http://www.viajesvirtuales.es/panoramas/granada/granada/granada-alcaiceria1_m.xml.

It is very easy to adapt. The texts that are displayed above the buttons are just trasparent 'png' files.

Regards.
