Content sharing

I need to create a website for the purposes of sharing: - Photos - Video - Files (pdf’s and such)

What’s the most bestest way to do this?

Thanks

Well - I can’t tell you the “best way” to do but what I do:

Inline Boxmodel

and

WebYep CMS (with Max Fancorts ActionSuite).

Boxmodel is not necessary, but helpful. So if I want to add a new file I do this via WebYep in the browser. It sounds complicated, but once proper set your Freeway-File, you’re independent of it and just update it “quick and dirty”. Even I can add new instances of predifened pages.

An example could be one of my page here:

http://www.kimmich-dm.de/blogging/disqus-follow.php?DOC_INST=13

where I added a screencast and a freeway-file as zip. But you can also add pdfs or whatever you want.

Just my way of working.

Thomas,

Thanks for the reply, but I don’t see anything on your link that pertains to my need? Perhaps I’m missing it?

sharing content, download content - that’s what I thought you want to do. Things like “Download this” or “Download that”.

Your do I miss something? Or the other way:

Could you point an example page that can inspire us to clarify your needs?

Don’t want to point into wrong directions.

Ohhhhhhhh, I see!

I thought you had a screen cast showing me how to do what I was wanting to do….. :-)

Yes, you have it right, I want to upload for people to view / download info, just like your site has.

I’ve never heard of the Boxmodel or WebYep before, so I’ll need to look into that.

Thanks

Hi Tony,

… not really - there are some actions (as I remember cause I don’t use them often) like “download pdf’s” and I’m sure, there are more of them available.

The Boxmodel is a bit an extended project and webyep is just a cms.

So don’t mind on them more than necessary.

You asked for the best way, I answered with a one goable and I’m sure there are plenties of them.

But an inspiration like a link is mostly recommended on every question “How to do”.

Cheers

Thomas

forgot to say:

load a .mov into an html object, apply two actions and you can show the file direct in your page.

Load a movie into you tube and just insert it into your page using one simple action.

So loads of poss. to do.

In case anyone else is wanting to do this kind of thing, I’m going to use a branded system using http://www.mediafire.com/
