Hi,
I recently bought an Apple Ipad2 and use it mainly for shooting pictures and recording movies of the design process. I can easily add these photos to my twitter messages (@storm3d) and upload the movies to Youtube.com in a few clicks. It's also very usefull for quickly browsing the web...
There's only one big downside to Apple products, and that's the fact that Apple doesn't support the Adobe Flash plugin. For my website galleries, I use(d) the "simpleviewer" plugin, that creates a really nice and simple Flash gallery with a thumbnail and a larger image next or above it.
Now I use my Ipad, I see that a lot of mobile visitors cannot see the designs in my gallery, so I had to make changes to it.
My website design is based on the principles of the "Save the Pixel" e-book by Ben Hunt, which states that the design should be as simple as possible and every pixel should contribute to the main goal of the website.
Keeping this in mind, I redesigned the tattoo galleries. Here's a picture of the 'before' gallery:
The red marked area is the flash movie containing the maori tattoo gallery.
People could scroll through the images and see the number and price of the design.
Before ordering it, customers had to select the correct tattoo nr. from the dropdown list and hit the "Buy Now" button.
People often selected the wrong tattoo and bought the piece they didn't want.
To get rid of this problem I decided to implement the Lightbox plugin/script to my gallery instead of the simpleviewer movie.
One other advantage was that I could add the size and price of the design in the header/description and even add a Paypal button, so it became impossible to order the wrong tatoo design.
The new gallery is now looking like this, with the lightbox frame popping up:
So if you have an Ipad, Ipod or Iphone, please check it out and let me know if there's anything I can change to improve it.
Kind regards, Mark Storm
