| Guitar Photo for Website |
I'm going to create my own web site. Thank you to those members who have helped me so far.
I'm going to have a photo of my Rally jazz guitar on the front page, the frets will be used as tabs.
This is one photo, I'm going to take a few more, the green background to be edited for another image
please tell me which ones you like, rate out of 100.
Cheers

Very beautiful guitar ,
get a picture with the whole instrument on it or you'll have to figure out what to do with long pages and having no bottom to your guitar!
If you only want the guitar , and not the background , I'd think a white(ish) backdrop without seams and wrinkles would serve you better. Everything else , straightening , background , you can do in Photoshop.
Could it be that Dan chose to place his menu horizontally because putting the guitar menu vertically down the left hand margin means you have to either cut off the head or have a large gap between the top of the page and the menu on the frets , where the head comes , because you also have to enlarge the picture for the text to fit,
though a vertical menu in the frets is much nicer.
Just trying to put it on a page for you!

You know if I really let my imagination go I see an absolutely beautiful switch to put the music on or off....or 'flick switch to open MP3 player' and then use the guitar knobs to control the volume and pan.....
.....let me just dig up a flash tutorial to make your own mp3 player.......
this ones about a player that loops http://flashexplained.com/sound/making-a-simple-player-for-mp3-loops-with-a-visual-equalizer/
I've made a few flash mp3 players while dabbling into playing audio on web pages.
Following the right tutorial teaches you and gives you the product you need.....
OK here a shit load of Flash Audio Tutorials : http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorials/Flash/Audio/1
.... but tutorialized.com are a bunch of ...bankers, when you get to the tutorial they put it in a frame with their own adds on top, so when your at a tut choose 'this frame / show only this frame' from the right click context menu.

Me too thought of white, hence a color will reflect onto the guitar when I edit the background. The guitar needs to be big enough for the tabs to be read, I'll have to experiement to see what looks right, sorry just noticed in the thread you are gonna have a go, cheers for that.
I think it will have to be as big as it can.

Me too again thought about the switches an knobs great minds think alike he he, but it's gonna be far too down the page, the other thing I thought of is when you click on the tab [fret] it plays a little guitar melody.
I'll check the links later, I'm at work, sorry this is quite exciting.

Hi Denis,
this website I am posting is my website from years ago. I havent updated it in a long long time.... but I thought you might like the effect I put on the last guitar photo on this site. It's basically a simple java applet, but you can also click on the guitar and have it directed to another page. The way I changed it, just this morning, is so that it just re-loads the same website, but I'm sure you'll see what I mean.
If you like the effect, I can send you the source (html tags) as well as the java applet so you can use it.
I just thought you may like it,,,, I think it's pretty cool, *Run your cursor over the photo *s

There is an error on the site, could not open it?
Hi Denis,
it works fine for me.... I am using Firefox 3.0.9 and it opens and the java applet starts without a problem but it does say it blocked a plugin which is apple quicktime (*an older version)....... I will take out the midi that plays in the background and it should work......
gimme a couple minutes and the site should work

IEs shit!
Yes...anything is possible , but I think you'd end up with a site that portrays some kind of warped reality.
You could make it curve around in a crescent using some kind of pool ripple effect if you really want a 'classical yet obscure' style.
To be honest I'd use the guitar as a background picture on a white page, code a cool menu to hang over the frets and have a 3rd party MP3 player embedded in the page.
If you really want to use the buttons and switches properly, getting them to turn and change the music you will I believe have to go down the Flash road. I've found my long lost link...these tutorials are essential when dealing with audio in Flash media : http://www.sonify.org/tutorials/flash_audio/advanced/

Just had a thought I wonder if I can manipulate the guitar image so that the neck bends 90 degrees, hmm, practical, but would it look OK???

beautiful guitar denis :D
Are you still on about the mouseOver effect on the last guitar? Very nice effect ... if it played some chords or just notes as well I'd be really impressed Fiddlah.........cant you implement some kind of random sample trigger into the java applet ... so causing a ripple would strike a chord.
lol but something like this SHOULD work...and almost everything works for me now that everythings fixed!
Sorry, you do not have access to post...
