Thumbnails Not Working #10

Open biffnewburg opened 13 years ago

Wonderful tool, getting the hang of the idiosyncracies, but simply cannot get thumbnails images to work based on comments in code...is there a demo somewhere of this actually functioning? I have edited as other have but to no avail...this is the last step to me being able to use this! Thank you so much!

I'd love to see how thumbnails work. Am wondering if thumbnails need to be manually created to work with Orbit? Or can they be created with jquery? I'm looking at jquery.thumbs.js as an option.

Am using HTML5 Boilerplate framework for an MLS realty search site. No one will be separately making/saving thumbnail images.

I'm headbanging trying to get thumbnails (made and saved for testing) to work. Giving up soon unless there's an example somewhere.

I gave up after pinging the fellow and the forum a few times about thumbnail implementation...nada... there were other issues too, in terms of the timer implementation and IE 9 compatibilty...I finally wound up using a widget from Adobe Exchange in Dreamweaver to create something much more manageable...it's too bad, too, because the Orbit plug-in allowed for some great presentation. Good luck!

Thanks. I'm giving up on Orbit, too. Having better luck w/Awkward http://www.awkwardgroup.com/sandbox/awkward-showcase-a-jquery-plugin/

Not as lightweight, and still haven't managed the thumbs yet, but at least I can center the slider in the liquid container. Baby steps... :/
