Yeah. I want my whole entire web page to look "glossy". I don't have any examples. Kinda like Joomla or a glassy button.

Except I want whole page to look glossy. It seems coffeecup needs to add that feature to VSD.

Hi M,
ok I think I get your meaning, kind of like a glass cover , see thru, no color or would you prefer a color?
i'll do a test page first and let you know

Yeah. Kinda like a glass cover, Exactly. Some sites are "shiny" looking; Polished. I don't know if it's possible to just add some code or not.

I did find a site where you can download a glossy.js file and upload to your site and then you insert one line of code on your webpage and then simply put: class="glossy" in your img src statement to make your images shiny. It works but it's only the image NOT the entire web page.

I don't know what makes that Javascript file work but surely if someone who knew javascript who looked at that file could determine exactly what it is that I would need to do to make my entire page shiny or "glossy" as most people seem to call it.

...and no I don't want color. Just glossy or shiny. :)

Thanks

I think I'd have to see a site to even imagine how that would work. You would think the site would have to be one huge image for the entire page to be shiny. I think the glare on my laptop screen is enough :P j/k
