I decided to create a Meet the Team page for my workgroup. I did some google searches and found this really cool team page, and decided to put my own spin on it in SL360.
Here is my take on it. You can click on each member to see an image and short bio, as well as their strengthfinder traits. If you click on the trait, you get a brief description of the trait. Click on my name to see a completed version of a page.
I've attached the SL360 if you are interested in it!
Would you mind posting your example in the comments so other folks who follow the challenge will get notified? I will also update the recap to include your work.
Great use of nested lightboxes, and a huge improvement over your inspiration!
Unfortunately, I can't open your 360 file in my SL2 - I'm interested in how you animated the transitions from one set of names to another. Could you provide a brief description?
I used Motion Paths, located in the animations tab.
When the user clicks the arrow, it goes to a "transition" slide that had just the animation of the names changing. Once the animation is done, it goes automatically jumps to the "content" slide.
With Storyline 2, its a little harder to get motion paths to line up exactly, but its doable. I love playing with them, they just take a little bit of time and energy to do.
Ah, transition slide - nice trick. Thanks. We're upgrading to SL3 this week, and I think the motion path feature is better there. I've used motion paths to animate a bird's eye view of a person in a wheelchair navigating a room, and I agree, it's not that easy.

Timely example, Joe! We have a weekly challenge going on ways to use lightboxes (https://community.articulate.com/articles/using-lightbox-slides-in-elearning) and the way you used lightboxes to reuse common terms is a perfect use.

Thanks David! I was off the grid for the last couple days, but I'm back and have posted it in the Challenge!
