I am looking for a no thrills slideshow. To place on my website (not as website just a small part of it) All I want it to do is display one pic after another. i dont want any controls, i dont want any info.. just show pics ... easy to use and free.

Any ideas anyone... pretty please ? :)
 
pxl8 those free nifties only work if you have already bought the slideshow mate..

easy tiger.. link dont work..
addy on bit.. works now but way too much stuff there.. just need a flash slideshow not a whole album kit.. cheers anyways :)


arrgh.. anyone ? :)
 
I'm using one of the nifties on my website :shrug:
 
i downloaded the slideshow one ..it says you ahve to uplaod a file that only seems available with the paid one.. the slideshow one only has auto.php

hmmm am i loking at it wrong.. hang about :)
 
Looks like they've updated it, I'll see if I can find where I downloaded my version from...
 
I have a sore head now.. cant get it tow ork.. cant get past javascript error saying the SWFobject is not defined

If you have Photoshop you can use the webgallery feature. It has a couple of flash galleries.

I have it set up as follows:

htdocs
somefolder
image_folder
image1.jpg
image2.jpg, etc...
mypage.html
slideshow.swf
slideshow.xml

Then in the html I've got:

Code: 
<script type="text/javascript">
	var so = new SWFObject("../somefolder/slideshow.swf", "gallery", "800", "400", "6", "#000000");
	so.write("flashcontent");
</script>

Any help?
 
exactly what i have.. and even just used the slideshow.htm that comes wiht it.. still got object not defined.... hmm
 
Do you have a line in the html head like this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="../somefolder/flashdetect.js"></script>
 
You guys are missing the best of all. SlideshowPro.

No contest.
 
Amazing how many of the "solutions" being offered don't actually meet the criteria of "no thrills, one pic after another, free" :bang: :nuts:

:lol:
 
yeagh and silly me keeps going looking ... I guess the "pro" bit should be a clue :)

fabs: downloaded installed that one.. cant change size though... far too big for my page... hmm

wierd.. I thought there would be loads:)
 
Kipax,

have a look at the portrait page on my site and the source, that's all set up and working using the nifties swf. The object not defined error is normally a problem with the .js not being loaded because the path is wrong but you don't get any errors telling you that's what's happened. Also check the case of everything is the same.

Go to the theme tab. There's a width and height box where you can change the size. See the Portfolio page on my site for examples.
 
fab size is greyed out and couldnt change.. otherwise would be excellent.

have got autoview working in firefox but not in ie :(
 
yup deffo greyed out... the one on your site is exactly what I was looking for.. so have you got the original download ? :)
 
Monoslideshow is pretty good, it's flexible and looks neat, but programming the XML file can bit a bit of a head screw.

There is also Amara Flash Slideshow Builder which is really easy as you output a slideshow as a flash object but can result in a large flash file.

Don't think that's your problem. I've just downloaded the current version to a different laptop and I was able to change the size on that one. One laptop is Vista and the other is XP, so I don't think the OS is an issue either.
 
I just downloaded it and size settings were working fine for me. You can even edit the xml file to stop the final slide showing the advert if you want ;)
 
When it exports the slideshow check the xml file it creates and remove the last slide entry, save and you're sorted.

OK.......small point, how do I do that, bearing in mind I'm not very tecchie and wouldn't know where to begin. How do I access the xml file and what part of the code to I remove?
