I am a photographer who's currently working on my portfolio website. There's a certain way that I want my website layout to look, but I can't get it to look that way because I don't know enough about Flash to save my life. I'm what you call a reverse coder. But, anyhow, I was wondering if I can get my site to look like this site.... Click on the image on the homepage... http://www.fwo3.com

I love how simple and compact it is, and it gets the point across. It has to be easy to update, meaning if I add an image to a folder that the main flash file reads, then it automatically adds a number to the side scroll where it lists the image numbers in each category. There also needs to be a way that I can put the images in a certain order because I've noticed that in image gallery flash files, it just takes the images in alphabetical order from whatever the filenames are. I've ran into problems with this. I've seen some galleries with an XML doc that the flash file reads in order to know which images load when. That might be a way around it, I don't know. Just throwing out ideas. Also, it should be easily updatable if I decide to add or delete categories on the bottom where the categories for portfolios are.

I will dedicate a seperate full page on my website with credits and links to you and your site to bring in some clients for yourself if someone can recreate this for me and send me all the files for me to upload.

THANKS IN ADVANCE.
