This tutorial is on the
DS_Fade Applet
 
Sorry, no java browser
This applet allows you to use several images, or as few as two.  Little or no preparation of the images is required, but the images should be the same size for the effect to work smoothly.  For this applet, you can use borders around the images, but remember that they will also be subject to the fade effect.
 
Step 1
 
In addition to your images, you will
need to upload the DS_Fade.class file to your website.  You can find this class file in the files section at ourYahoo Group page,
along with it there are some script variations. My thanks to Jana, for finding this applet and sending us the files..... 
 
Step 2
 
Now you are ready for the script part. I have highlighted the changes you need to make in red below to make it easier to follow.  Notice that you must use a codebase="  " for the stationery code for the applet to work. 
 
For Stationery Use:
 
<CENTER><APPLET codebase="http:// your website addy /" code=DS_Fade.class width=330 height=418><PARAM NAME="speed" VALUE="20"><PARAM NAME="credits" VALUE="Applet by Dario Sciacca (www.dseffects.com)">
<PARAM NAME="pause" VALUE="1"><PARAM NAME="bgcolor" VALUE="e9e4d1"><PARAM NAME="interactive" VALUE="no">
<PARAM NAME="image2" VALUE="http://your website addy/applets/image2.jpg">
<PARAM NAME="image1" VALUE="http://your website addy/applets/image1.jpg">
<B>Sorry no java  
         browser</B></APPLET></CENTER>
 
For Webpages Use:
 
** here i added 2 more images
so you can see how to do that **

Now just put it all together and let's see what wonderful creations you have come up with.  As always, if you have a problem, don't hesitate to ask Karen, Shari, or any of the other group members for help.
