|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Online Slideshow Apps Marc F. Henning, Photographer Bentonville | AR | USA | Posted: 2:58 PM on 09.02.09 ->> I'm planning on posting online slideshows to Hawgs Illustrated's Scout.com website during the football season. Does anyone have some good ideas for online apps that work well, but are simple to use. Something that has a play function, but can also let viewers scroll through the images at their own pace. Any help would be appreciated. marc  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

It doesn't have a play button but it works well. You can make a simpleviewer gallery from photo mechanic.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Not the greatest or easiest software to work with, but I thought I would throw it out there.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Although I wonder if the interface could be more intuitive. Here's an example of images and a simple video where I've embedded the collage in a blog entry: http://bluesox-baseball.blogspot.com/2009/04/bluesox-game-april-25.html Also, you might consider AutoViewer which is a cousin to SimpleViewer. Here's an AutoViewer example: http://www.greggriess.com/VIPERS_09-21-2008/ Both of these allows for disabling "right click" to protect the images.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Although… "… only items that are viewable by anyone and marked as safe will appear in the embedded slideshow." Source: http://www.flickr.com/help/faq/search/?q=embed Sample here: http://davidameyer.com/blog/2009/09/05/embedding-flickr-slideshows/ Dead simple. Easy to adjust size to fit existing layout. Opportunity to drive more visitors to your site through integration with Flickr. Not sure how Scout/Fox/NCAA would feel about integrating the services. I did notice, however, that the New York Times is now using Flickr, which may lend some credibility to its editorial use. http://www.flickr.com/photos/thenewyorktimes/  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
