The new tour window is more competitive than ever before. We have dropped the enlarge tour and moved to one larger sized window. We have another release planned in the few of months which will integrate flash and be scalable for sizing.
Also notice that we have moved some things around for a nicer look and feel. Marketing Partner Banner Ads (MPBA’s) will no longer cover up part of the custom banner area. MPBA’s are now located in the lower right hand corner of the tour. The size of this area is different than it used to be. You can now use the Affiliate tab in the Builder site to upload 250 by 35 pixel MPBA’s for the classic viewer or upload a larger version for the new viewer. The new viewer maximum MPBA size is 180 by 85 pixels. No other graphic sizes will change for the new viewer.
Nice clean tabs across the top of each tour are provided to give quick and easy access to additional features of the tour without cluttering up the tour itself.
Roll the mouse over some of the tabs and notice that additional features will appear. This again helps keep the tour looking cleaner and more organized.
We have added a new link on the tour near the Owner/Realtor’s photo/graphic that will jump directly to their tour gallery. Tour galleries will get a face lift very soon also.
The classic viewer will continue to be available for those that wish to use it. When Email is clicked next to the tour name on the Builder site you will be prompted for either Classic or New viewer. The tour will display depending on which links are used to link the tour on the website. Default links such as on Realtor.com, Real Tour Vision public website, Builder website, and automated feeds will use the new viewer links. These may take a few days to complete the transition. The Download tour will continue to use the Classic Viewer for now. The Download tour with the new viewer will be released in 2007.
