XML Portfolio Template – FullScreen

Now here’s a Flash template you can use for your own portfolio showcase. It’s easy to use and customize and all you have to do is edit the XML file to modify the template’s design according to your needs.

Adobe has just released the free Flash Media Playback player, and here’s where you can download it from. The media player allows you to publish videos and other media online in a matter of minutes,  with just a few lines of HTML.

“Adobe® Flash® Media Playback is a free, standard media player for the Adobe Flash Platform. It can be used by any website with only a few lines of HTML, enabling playback of video and other media in minutes. Its extensible plug-in architecture enables easy integration with content delivery networks (CDNs) and advertising platforms, as well as support for analytics and additional third-party services.”

Bloggers will be able to configure video content easier and business owners or enterprises can monetize video content and customize the media playback’s interface to blend in with the professional design of their brand and website. Find out more about all the features and benefits you can get from the Flash Media Playback .

Upload the photos of your products and this gallery will also show a nice dynamic image mirror effect.  You can include external links so that users can be redirected to the presentation page of the item they choose.  Once you download this Flash gallery, you will also get a help file with instructions, not that you really need it since everything can be easily edited from the XML file.

How is this useful?

Flash Template Web Deep Linking

This AS3 Flash template includes galleries, a latest news category where you can also include .swf files throught the text to make it more interactive. A professional XML video player is also available and you can successfully use it to present studies or show your visitors how you can help them.

Exclusive Photo Template – PayPal and Cart – XML Deeplinking

This template is ideal if you want to sell items directly from your website. It includes a cart and also allows users to purchase and pay through PayPal. You don’t need to know how to code to use this template because everything you need can be configured with external XML files.

Exclusive Photo Template – XML Deeplinking Resizable

In case you don’t need a shopping cart, this simpler version of the previous template includes everything from galleries and custom text windows, to customized color theme and HTML formatted text. This is an excellent aquisition for  photographers because you can showcase your work using any type of image format and the gallery will resize and display perfectly no matter the image size or format.

Snapshots of Provence

The creators define it as “a sound and visual experience from the travel book of photographer Thomas Duval and sound designer Tacteel“. This website has a stunning Flash navigation and works better than a tourist guide, combining relevant images, sounds and videos that represent the specific of a city. Use the showreel to navigate and explore.

Sevenedge Interactive Media

I really liked Sevenedge’s Flash website and social network’s navigation menus.  It definitely gets your attention, while “floating” through their awesome interactive landscape.

Cyril Masson

Cryl Masson is a Parisian photographer, co-founder and artistic director at Studio White. His Flash portfolio is built with great taste, having in mind at all times that the navigation through the sections shouldn’t distract the visitor’s attention from his beautiful photographs. You will like it because it’s subtle and elegant.

Photographer XML Template

This Flash template also focuses on a simple and light navigation through the photographs.  If you’re looking to build your own portfolio, this is on sale so come check it out.

When it comes to his Flash video players, FireCode has created his own, unique style. Just take a look at this slick YouTube video player:

Not only does it include a very cool design, sharing on Twitter and Facebook buttons, but it also supports all video formats that Flash Player can play, streaming and Youtube videos. If you’re tired of that same old video player design that everybody’s been using for years, then you’ve found your match.

Check out Firecode’s awesome Flash video player collection below or visit his portfolio here.

Millions of devices are expected to be shipped with Flash Player 10.1 for mobile devices, in the second half of this year. No wonder people at Adobe are so excited considering there are approximately 3.5 million Flash developers and designers that are working with Flash-based solutions.

The new release of Flash Player creates a whole new sandbox for these millions of designers and developers to create next-generation content, games, advertising and applications.

“We’ve already seen that those who have been using the new Flash Player on Android phones love it, and as devices start to ship with Flash during the rest of the year, those that don’t have Flash on their smart phones will wish they did”, said Narayen.

Well, we couldn’t agree more.
