Zoomify Express – Free Image Viewer and Zoomer for eLearning

April 22nd, 2010

I recently came across Zoomify Express.  I am using it with mosaics that I created with another free tool, AndreaMosaic, to accomplish a “pictures within a picture effect” (as you zoom in you realize that the image you are looking at is really made up of thousands of smaller images. I typically use this approach when creating training programs – or facilitating meetings – that require participants to think about the “big picture.”

Listed below is product information from Zoomify’s site:

Zoomify Express makes high-quality images fast and easy to view! It’s simple to use, just drag any image onto the Zoomify Converter, then copy the folder it creates to your web site – no special setup is needed. Your site visitors use a tiny Flash movie as the ‘viewer’ – so there’s nothing to download or install. And it’s completely free – no strings!

Features & Benefits

  • Drag & drop authoring – works great with all your web design tools
  • Totally standard publishing – just JPEGs, HTML, and a tiny Flash movie – no special setup
  • Universal access viewing – everyone has Flash – nothing to download or install
  • Free for private, public, and commercial use on web sites, CDs, or DVDs
  • No royalties or fees – your content is yours – no strings!

Zoomifyer EZ Includes:

  • Zoomify Converter: drag-and-drop tool makes any image zoomable – bigger is better!
  • Zoomify Viewer: tiny Flash movie (SWF file) with zoom-and-pan buttons and display
  • Template web page: example HTML to tell Zoomify Viewer which image to show
  • Quick Start guide: easy step-by-step instructions for using everything above!

Perfect For Web Designers Creating Web Sites with High-Quality Image Content!

  • Photos
  • Scans
  • Screenshots
  • Galleries
  • Maps
  • Drawings
  • Composites
  • Games

Prerequisites:

  • Authoring: images need to be converted (’tiled and tiered’) before they can be zoomed and panned
  • Publishing: a web site or CD/DVD is needed for sharing the content
  • Viewing: Flash Player v9 or later is used for viewing – almost every internet user already has this!
  • Licensing: The Zoomify Viewer is freely redistributable on web sites or CDs/DVDs in published (SWF) form. Your content is your own – no royalties, no strings. For detailed information please refer to the Zoomify License Agreement.
