Adobe CS4

I have recently updated all my software from CS3 to CS4. The new Creative Suite consists of many more programs including Adobe Soundbooth, Premier Pro Captivate and Presenter which means much more for my clients with WebDesign.

I have also been learning Adobe Illustrator CS4, i am hoping to use this package to produce effective vector graphics such as the ones below.

Web Design Effects - Photo Galleries and Slideshows

September 1st, 2008 by Steve Leonard

Adding images to any Web Site is important, if they are going to be static then you might aswell add some special effects to them, not to over the top but just enough to make them look like they belong to your design.

Here is the way i would approach something like this. Below is a standard image straight from a digital camera of my youngest son Josh.

Now here are some examples of making this photo look more dynamic in a static form by simply removing the background and adding some effect items.

Then Add your images together in Adobe Flash to Form a simple moving Slideshow.

Everything can be adjusted to suit your needs. A slideshow can be set by me to meet your expectations.
