I find websites with nice page turning functions, with zoom, button control or 'click and drag' the page. The animation is similar to turning the pages of a magazine, book or photo album. I'd love to see CC have a program that could create this from photos and text or html pages. Other services require you to upload your PDF documents to be converted. You pay for every website, or have to purchase packages of 10 websites at a time.
It would be great to have a CoffeeCup flash program that outputs "page flip" actions in something that looks like a photo album and magazine options.

www.mainsites.ca is my website, and yes, some of it is crappy.

I spent several days looking at potential flip book software to buy. Found quite a few, some totally rip you off and charge you a fortune per book, or per conversion from PDF to flip book.
Theres a lot of good software out there, some of it very cheap to let you create unlimited flip books.
Unsure whether i can post the URL here or not but if you search for flip book you should see most of the main players.
Would love a Coffee Cup version as i like the way their software works but theres a fair few out there on the market at the moment.

psj3809,
No harm in posting the link to flip book programs. There have been several folks mentioning wanting that, so it would be a service for them.
I suggest you post it in the Break Room since it does not really apply to CoffeeCup.
If you have tried some of the programs, you can even put your impression of the software in the message. Bill R.

Yes, this would be great. I recently added a page to an existing site with a 'flip book' but found that existing software was either a bit 'clumsy' looking or very expensive.

DITTO--- I've been looking into flip books that have a magazine feel to them. I found one I liked that is WYSIWYG style, but cost an arm and a leg. Coffee cup is welcome to email me and I'll let you know the software I tried so you can take a peak at it. Bet you can provide a program just like it, and a better rate, and better functionality!

I seem to recall that one of our moderators, Cliff Main, has a flip book he created, and unless I'm mistaken he used freely-available code. Maybe he can chime in with where he got it (or correct me if I'm wrong).
