This section is designed to showcase some of the most popular and flexible features within SiteMaker. Because our tool can be used in so many ways, the choices can often be mind-boggling. Each tool has a number of different ways that it can be customised to make it look the way you want and do the things you do, but sometimes you don't know what you want until you see it! So that's why we present to you the show homes. Here you'll find real examples of how tools can be used to stimulate your creative imagination. Enjoy!
Image tools
The image tools show home deals with the core image features within SiteMaker which include; crop tools, pop-up galleries and the slide show. This site shows you a range of existing tools and how to change their presentation to meet particular needs, e.g. as a product catalogue, or animated image sequence. Have a look.
Clipart
There's loads of clipart available to use within SiteMaker, but it's not always easy to see it bit by bit in the File Manager. So here is a complete list of what is available split between graphic elements, image cut-outs, and maps & wallpapers.
Gradient Effects
Gradient effects are one of those things that can be used to create a vibrant design in your site, but it's not always obvious which ones to use and how to use them. This site gives you some ideas.
Themeable widgets
The new range of widgets (chat, forum, form, mail to a friend, comments) are all themeable, which means you can change the button styles and colours quickly and easily. Here are some examples of how they could look.
Video Widgets
Video widgets can be customised to look a number of different ways without or without their controls visible. This site gives you a few ideas of how you can change the way they look to fit with your site.
