  3. We love full screen slideshow sites but they are only practical for those companies that are visual in nature. Landscapers, architects, and any industry that is visual based would benefit greatly but I'm not sure that other businesses would benefit as much. Great examples of websites using full screen jquery slideshows!!

  4. Hello Chris.

    Fantastic collection on the full screen slideshow website. It is amazing that a nice big image can totally transform into a nice looking website, however I believe it it best to keep it these types of web designs to minimal content being display unless you can use something like 30% opacity so the user can see the background image as well as the content.

    Kind Regards.

  5. Advantage of such slideshows is that it looks great on every screen size, but performance can be a little low due to large images that have to be downloaded.

  6. Hi Chris,
    thanks for sharing the cool site-examples. I got a question, do you ask the site-owners when you use their screendesigns as screenshots. Is it definately legal to use these pictures under copyright? Of course there would be a huge problem worldwide, cos we got these best-of-lists all over the place. But this does not mean that it is legal to do so. Waht do you think? Who has experience, may Chris or ANY other blogger use any picture (even with link deeplink to the "creator") in an own context?

    Appreciate your opinions
    Best regards
    Karina

  10. Hi Chris,

    There's some great layouts here. Slideshows are a good choice for portfolio style sites, or any which are graphic-heavy.

    Best wishes, Alex
