Cool Iris Gallery

Cooliris is a free flash based gallery that can easily be integrated into any website, content management system or virtual learning environment. What's really special about it (apart from the fact it looks and works brilliantly) is that it can be configured to read from a Flickr account. This means that gallery images can be easily managed by the user on Flickr and and new images or changes are immediately shown through the Cool Iris gallery without the need for paying a web developer to update your pages...I clearly haven't thought this through have I...

  2. Nice. Any chance of using Cooliris as an occasional alternative to Moodle's Lightbox Gallery? I like the way you can display multiple images in a small area of screen real-estate with Cooliris. The scrolling and angling of the gallery is a nice effect. Linking to Flickr is also great!

  3. It's so easy Kam, when I send you the forum slider code I'll include the object embedding code for cooliris, no installation needed at all you simply paste it into your course HTML view.
