A scroller in 3D. Let your scrolling message circulate around your images.

Entering text

Just enter the message you want to scroll here.

Fonts

Here you can specify the text size (in pixels) and the font. IMPORTANT, make sure to disable the letter border if you change the font size or type! Otherwise it will not look good. If you want to use the letter border, make sure to leave the font size and font type fields EMPTY! This applet supports FFT files.

Colors

Here you can set the text, background and border color. If you want to use a border around your text, check the checkbox.

Background Image

You can specify a background image for the applet. This setting will override the background color that you may specify. If you want the image to fit in the background, make sure to check the scale image checkbox.

Scroller speed, Radius and character spacing

With the effect speed you can set the speed of the scrolling text. Make sure the effect radius is maximum the half of the applet width. For example, if your applet is 200 pixels wide, then the radius of the effect must be 100 pixels at the most. Adjust the character spacing (with values between 1-4) to adjust the text's letters for the new radius, this will not be done automatically.
