Create custom themes

You can develop your own lay-outs for the views slideshow ddblock module. Same as with the ddblock module we will create a tutorial page what steps to follow to create your own custom theme.

Commercial themes

With the commercial themes you have a wide range of layouts to choose from for your slideshow. These theme lay-outs are flexible and thoroughly tested in IE 7, Firefox 2, Firefox 3, Safari 3.1, Opera 9.5 and Chrome. Also IE6 is supported (although there are some extra steps which have to be done and there are workarounds for translucency). Commercial themes can be found at: http://themes.myalbums.biz

We welcome requests for other theme layouts. You can make a request by sending us your requirements on the Contact form at http://themes.myalbums.biz Please be as detailed as possible. We will periodically release new commercial themes.
