Description
1. Your audience will see photos, information related to each photo, and Google Maps on the same screen at the same time.
2. The photos will be displayed as a slide show in the ‘Slide Area’. The information for each photo will be displayed in the ‘Info Area’.
3. Each photo will be plotted at the location where the photo is taken (or at the location where you have assigned) on Google Maps. In addition, each photo will be listed in the ‘Gallery Area’.
4. The ‘Slide Area’, ‘Info Area’, ‘Gallery Area’ and Google Maps will all appear on the same screen at the same time.
5. Your audience can do any of the following at any time when viewing your photo display:
a). Click the ‘Slide Area’ to see a photo in full-screen size; click it again to return to the original size.
b). Save any photo (by right-clicking it or touching-and-holding it).
c). Stop/start the slide show. If the slide show is stopped, viewer can go to next/previous photo manually by clicking a button or swiping the ‘Slide Area’.
d). Change the speed of the slide show.
e). Set photo in the ‘Slide Area’ to a desired size.
f). As each photo appears in the ‘Slide Area’, information related to each photo also appears in the ‘Info Area’.
g). Increase the ‘Info Area’ size and/or the font size of its contents so that information can be seen clearly along with each photo.
h). Decrease the ‘Info Area’ size and/or the font size of its contents so that more screen space can be used for photo and/or map.
Viewer can reduce the ‘Info Area’ size to zero.
i). If you have added a link to a song for a particular photo, while the photo is appearing in the ‘Slide Area’, the song's link will also be
appearing in the ‘Info Area’. If viewer clicks this song's link, it will play the song immediately. Hence viewer can see your photo and
listen to a song at the same time.
j). Similarly, if you have added other links (including but not limited to video, webpage, file, other photo, etc.), while the photo is appearing
in the ‘Slide Area’, the added links will also be appearing in the ‘Info Area’. If viewer clicks an added link, it will
execute the link. Hence you can link your photo to anything available in the Internet. This greatly enriches your photo display.
k). Increase/decrease the size of each photo plotted on Google Maps.
l). Increase/decrease the height of each stack of photos on map.
(If 2 or more photos are at the same location, the program stacks the photos up, creating a 3-dimensional view. A location with
higher stack of photos will have more photos taken (or assigned to) at that location. Increasing the height of a stack will make a photo
(within the same stack of photos) more visible, because it will not be blocked by the photo above it.)
m). Click a photo on the map to display the photo in the ‘Slide Area’ and the photo's information in the ‘Info Area’.
n). Zoom-in, zoom-out, and go anywhere within Google Maps, because the photos are plotted in a real Google Maps.
