stevemarcus Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Brian, the new Slideshow option for viewing folders is really nice. Thanks for adding this new feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emre Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Can you add an option to disable resizing? Firefox uses bilinear interpolation which mucks things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emre Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Not that it changes anything, but I meant nearest neighbor, not bilinear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottershead Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Emre, it only resizes when the photo is too big for the browser window. That is, it resizes smaller, but never bigger. So the way to prevent resizing is to have a big enough window for the photos on display. Between some "mucking up" due to interpolation by the browser, and having to scroll to see the photo, I decided to go with the possibility of interpolation problems. In a slideshow, having to scroll the photos is really a drag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yongbo Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Nice feature, but I broke it. After finish at least one loop, click the first thumbnail from left on the top, the dispaly just go crazy. I am using IE 6.0.2800.1106.XPSP2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emre Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 You are right; I did not realize it adapts to the size of the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natureshots Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Tried it out and seems to work ok. Nice enhancement indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbajzek Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I agree the slideshow is a cool addition. I'm curious as to how the sequence of slides is chosen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yongbo Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Works fine now. Maybe just sensitive to certain size of the browser window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremy freeland Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 It's got some bugs, the interface is clunky (kind retro), there's no autoplay feature, the subscriber can't create the order in which the shots appear, or mix shots from different folders, BUT ... thanks, Brian - never expected something like this quite so quickly - very appreciated.

mottershead Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 There is an autoplay feature. The double arrow at top right. As for a retro look, photo.net as a whole has a retro look. The look is mostly controlled by a CSS stylesheet. If you want to send me a better one, I will look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivek iyer Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 It is a cool feature but does not work for me. It goes on and on saying *loading* (<100 Kb images from a small folder). Hope it will work someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottershead Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 What browser are you using? It has been tested so far only with Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox 1.07 on Linux and Windows XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivek iyer Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Netscape (old versions) users will have problems like I did. No problems anymore. Really neat! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottershead Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 It is guaranteed not to work in Netscape 4 or earlier. This will never be fixed. The only older browser that I can get interested in is IE 5.5, and that is getting to be marginal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivek iyer Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 No go with Netscape 6.x. Firefox, AOK so is the IE (whatever that I sparingly use). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauriee Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Hi! I was excited to try this out but for some reason I cant see the feature...Do I need to do something first to my computer? Laurie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgarity Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Let me add my voice to those saying thanks for the slideshow feature. Its a wonderful upgrade to the site and is much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevemarcus Posted November 22, 2005 Author Share Posted November 22, 2005 Go to one of your image folders, Laurie. The "Slideshow" link should be next to the "Options" and "Details" links just above and to the left of the thumbnail views of your images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnicholson Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Very, very cool feature, Brian. Would you mind looking at my <a href="http://www.photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=481503">Bulbs</a> folder with the slideshow? I see these little white specks on my images that don't appear on any of the originals. Thanks for the feature and thanks for taking a look. I'm using IE6.
