[Pro] Slimbox editing or alternatives

Freeway
1

Hi everyone,

I currently use the Slimbox action on my portfolio page here:
http://www.sj-creative.co.uk/portfolio.html

However I am re-doing my site and want to have more control over how the images come up … namely once you click an image and the screen goes black with the image enlarged, I want to be able to replace the black with a different colour or even a background image.

Does anyone know how to do this with Slimbox, I am aware it would mean editing the CSS file.

Or, does anyone know of any other actions that could give me a similar effect for my gallery and give me more control?

Thanks

Simon

Hi Simon,
Webkit’s web inspector will help you explore these styles (Right-click in Safari, Chrome etc and Inspect Element).

Try adding the following code to the head of your page (Page > HTML Markup > Before end head);

<style type="text/css">
<!-- 
#lbOverlay {
	background: #ff0000 url(Resources/portfolioimage.png);
	opacity:0.25 !important;
}
-->
</style>

Have a play with the styles; the colour, background image and opacity until you get something you are happy with.
If you want to do this in a more Freeway-like way you could add this style using the Edit > Styles dialog.
Regards,
Tim.
