I am primarily a graphic designer so i know graphics and programs like photoshop and illustrator like the back of my hand. I dont however know programming and all the "under the hood" stuff. Anyways I recently came across a freelance gig that I really want for this local band to do their site. They are not too worried about my programming skills but they want me to perform 2 tasks or at least let them know i can do these 2 things to get the contract. That is why Im here- like i said i suck at the programming stuff and was hoping for some help/ suggestions from you guys!
If you go there and click on "launch player" it opens up their myspace player in a separate window and nicely resized. I dont know how to do this! :( this might be super simple for you guys but I cant and Im hoping for some help. The local band has a myspace page with their own music.
If you click on photos you get a gallery of thumbnails and if you further click on those thumbnails they open full size in a separate window with the ability to close or click to see the next pic. I dont understand how they did this. Should I use Flickr? The best I can do is use Flickr carousel :(
Any help/ insight would be much appreciated! I havent done freelance work for a long time and the chance to do some creative work outside my ****ty 9 to 5 would be GREAT! and a real... release for me ;)

The first thing:
They gave me this site as an example: http://www.deftones.com/
If you go there and click on "launch player" it opens up their myspace player in a separate window and nicely resized. I dont know how to do this! :( this might be super simple for you guys but I cant and Im hoping for some help. The local band has a myspace page with their own music.
The second thing:
Another example, another band page: http://www.chimaira.com/the-infection/
If you click on photos you get a gallery of thumbnails and if you further click on those thumbnails they open full size in a separate window with the ability to close or click to see the next pic. I dont understand how they did this. Should I use Flickr? The best I can do is use Flickr carousel :(
