Looking to add online sales of vinyl graphics to my business.
Wondering if anyone here knows of programs that will integrate into VSD to offer online font, colour and effects options.
A pretty good example of what I'm after can be seen here www.boatnames.net/Default.aspx
Thanks if you can help! - Boyd

Boyd, I found this at the bottom of the of linked page you provided.
http://www.developflash.com/

I would think you could use this in VSD. Appears to be flash driven. Free online demo. Give a try.

Eric, thanks for your reply.
I've looked at that site, just wondering if this program could be easily integrated into a VSD website.
It's a bit over my head, having never worked with Flash before.
Wondering if somebody with the know-how could check out the specs and tell me if this will work with VSD before I send them my money.
The procedure for installation is listed here http://www.developflash.com/liveartmini/readme.html
Thanks again! - Boyd

Boyd, I played around with the Live Art Mini Sample that you can download from their website. I got it to work in VSD. I uploaded it to my host and it only has partial function. I'll mess around with it again tonight.

Thanks aain Eric.
BTW-years ago I had a chance to tour Cousteau's wind powered ship when it was in drydock in Vancouver, very cool.
I think it was named Alcyone?

Eric, you're obviously more adept at this than I am.
I've tried and tried but can't get the demo to work in VSD at all.
Followed the VSD Flash tutorial to no avail.

Boyd, Here are some instructions to try. I was able to get this to work locally but not on my host. Maybe you can ask the company for some technical support if it doesn't work on your host before you commit your $


1. First download the free trial version and unzip the files to a location of your choice.

2. Click on Edit then Add files. click on the Root folder and click add files. Now browse to the unzipped files in the LiveArtMiniTrial_v1.1 folder and locate the following files and select them.
A. AC_RunActiveContent.js
B. config.xml
C. LiveArtMini.swf

3. Click on the Root folder and click add folder. Name this folder "css". Now click on this folder and then click add files. Now browse to the unzipped files and locate the css folder. Select all the files in it.

4. Click the Root folder again and click add folder. Name this folder "fonts". Now browse to the unzipped files and locate the font folder. Select all the files in it.

5. Click the Root folder again and click add folder. Name this folder "img". Now browse to the unzipped files and locate the img folder. Select all the files in it.

6. Click the Root folder again and click add folder. Name this folder "xml". Now browse to the unzipped files and locate the xml folder. Select all the files in it.


In VSD insert a HTML box and paste this code into the BODY html.


Now click on Edit then Edit Header and paste this code into Header HTML.


Hope this helps.

Well that was easy!
Eric, thank goodness there's people like you in this world who are willing to help shmucks like me!
After following your instructions it worked great.
Many thanks! - Boyd
