General
Wedding Slides is a general purpose slideshow program. It
was written using the Microsoft .net framework. It is simply the best slideshow
program on the web.
How It Works
Wedding Slides uses server side programming in two ways.
It uses server side programming in the traditional way by reading and writing
information to a database. The data is used to change the page content such as
drop down selectors, the banner image at the top of the page and much more.
There is a problem with having the server computer continually reading the
database and modifying the page, it takes time. This is especially true for
slideshows. A large portion of code generates static information, information
that never changes or changes very seldom. Wedding Slides is also a code
generation program. It creates static code that runs directly on the client
browser. It does this only once. The result is much faster loading pages.
Some programs create thumbnail images on the fly. Every time a page is
requested any thumbnail images on the page are created by the server computer.
This takes time. When an image is uploaded to Wedding Slides it is
resized and saved and a thumbnail image is created. This greatly reduces server
computer load. The result is much faster loading pages.
GPS - Global Positioning System
Wedding Slides uses GPS is two ways. When you are viewing
a slideshow or pictures, you can click the link 
to see where the pictures were taken. You can also search for other sets of
pictures that were taken near the there. How near is controlled by a set of
radio buttons for the distance in miles. When you click Search the drop down
selector is populated with picture sets that were taken within your search
range.
While you are on the GPS Search page, notice that the ads on the right change.
The advertisers that have a limited geographic range are displayed, such as
photographers that are only willing to travel a certain distance. This lets you
see what services are available in that area.
Would You Like A Slideshow On Your Web Site?
We can do this in two ways. If you have a Microsoft server that
is .net enabled and an MS Access or MS SQL server, we can add a slideshow
project to your web site. We can also host a slideshow for you on our servers.
You can either place the slideshow inside a frame / iframe or we can host
an entire slideshow for you.
