Gazley Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hi there, Any suggestions for a touch aware photo gallery? I used Fancybox on the site I have just installed remotely. When I tried the site on an iPhone and iPad, Fancybox doesn't appear to respond to touch, in place of a mouse click, when you touch its previous/next buttons or on the left or right half of the image. If anyone has any suggestions for a really good mouse/touch aware gallery utility, I'd appreciate your recommendations. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

interrobang Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I think the best responsive gallery is royalslider, but it costs $12: http://codecanyon.net/item/royalslider-touchenabled-jquery-image-gallery/461126 For free and also quite good: http://flexslider.woothemes.com/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mats Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Haven't tried it yet but Jquery Cycle is nice: http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle2/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveP Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Haven't tried it yet but Jquery Cycle is nice: http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle2/ And it's very lightweight (under 1000 bytes) cousin tCycle http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle2/tcycle/ which must be the easiest-to-implement image fader available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 When I tried the site on an iPhone and iPad, Fancybox doesn't appear to respond to touch, in place of a mouse click, when you touch its previous/next buttons or on the left or right half of the image. I'm really happy with photoswipe (originally recommended to me by Soma). It really duplicates the native mobile gallery experience beautifully. At the same time, it's quite a nice way to browse photos on non-mobile too (you can even drag the photos with your mouse). Example 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mats Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Swipeview feels almost like a native slideshow. Unfortunately i found it hard to implement the script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatthewSchenker Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Greetings Everyone, Picking slideshow scripts can be time-consuming. So many great ones, but I always look for the ones that have the simplest markup for dynamic content. As interrobang suggests, Flexslider is excellent. I use it in a lot of sites. Another excellent one is BxSlider, which also allows a great variety of content: http://bxslider.com/ In my recent sites, I have been using both Flexslider and BxSlider Thanks, Matthew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
