New Powerful Website Features From PhotoBiz.com; Icon Bank, Multi-Music Player and Captions


Greensboro, NC (Vocus/PRWEB) December 07, 2010

First of all, it is important to know that for our PhotoBiz customers these new features are free of charge. Once we release these updates, they will be automatically added to the applicable control panels and can be used right away.

For the new Icon Bank feature we have started with over 20 different popular icons such as Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Blog, Shopping Cart, Flickr, Paypal, Blog/RSS, Vimeo, Tublr, WordPress, Youtube and more. Once an icon has been selected, the customer can simply put in the URL address and choose whether it is to open in a new or same window. The Tool Tip (alt tag) that is filled in the control panel will be shown when a visitor rolls-over the icon on the website. This is especially helpful if a customer is using less common icons and also to give their clients a better idea of where they are about to go. Up to 10 icons can appear on the website at a time.

One of the best attributes of this new feature is the color shifting ability. As a completely custom color scheme is created on their website the designer may not want different colored icons distracting from the overall design. With our advanced color switching technology, PhotoBiz has taken this into consideration and allowed these icons to follow suit with the design elements. The designer will have the benefit of the icons without the distractions and when moused over the icon will display its normal color.

The multi-music player is more of an evolution of a feature than completely new. To many PhotoBiz customers the music playing as their Flash animation runs is an important part of their website. Our customers can upload their own licensed MP3 files to build a music library. Now up to three MP3 files can be selected to run consecutively on each Home and gallery pages. Music selected for the Home page can run continuously as each page of the website is visited without starting over. Music selected for the gallery pages will automatically start playing when they are opened. There are no limitations to the amount of music that can be uploaded except those based on the size of a customers membership plan.

The number one request for a new feature has been to have the ability to add captions to images. Because of the nature of Flash driven websites this has not been an easy request to fulfill. The talented developers at PhotoBiz not only achieved this but made the process extremely easy. Now our customers can title their photographs or with an up to 100 character limit tell their story.

After an image is uploaded it is simply a matter of clicking on the photo and typing into a text box. Font style, size and color are automatically set to what is used for the navigation menu. PhotoBiz templates can be further customized by utilizing our color shifting technology. If color shifting is set, our system will overwrite the navigation menu color and use the color shifting color. Our state of the art color shifting ability allows the user to coordinate a color with each photo as it transitions through the slide show.

The caption text will fade from view after a set amount of time so as to not obscure the image but mousing over the caption will re-instate it.

As an innovative leader in the photographic/web industry PhotoBiz.com is always developing new features and products to better serve our customers and reach out to new ones.
