Enlarge Slideshow Image on Homepage

[djmiland]

Following Ivar's tutorial, I've customized my website---the raw beginnings of my website, that is---so that it displays the slideshow on the homepage. However, the images in the slideshow don't take up the entire slideshow viewing box the way they do on Andy's (Moon River) site. How can I enlarge my images to take up the whole box? And, ideally, I'd like to get rid of the framed "box" altogether so that my images appear only on the background.

Thanks in advance for your help folks! Smugmug rocks!

Welcome to Dgrin :wave
Try this.
In your bio change the width size shown in bold.

createSWF(730,600, oParams, "transparent");


Add this to your CSS.

#bioBox .boxBottom {
background: none;
border: none !important;
}

Al,
I have tried to increase the size of my image and to remove the splash 'mini' picture from the homepage but I must be doing something wrong. Is there a way to make the homepage slideshow the same size of the slideshow on regular galleries, that is, fill the page except for the name and nav bar?

Can you help?

Add these to your CSS to remove the photo and center the show.

#bioBox .photo {display: none;}

#userBio {text-align: center;}

I think you're referring to the "full screen slideshow" and there isn't anyway
to apply that to your homepage show that I know of.

Thanks Alan, that did it :)

How can I set a different background for the homepage instead of just back? Can I use an image for the background?

You can play with these.

body.homepage {background: #333;}

or for all pages
body {background: #333;}

All the boxes

.box {background: #444;}
or
.box {background: none;}

Thanks Al, it's so good to make the 'box' invisible :)

I am downloading the CSS help so I should not bother you too much again :clap
