technical question

[Andy R]

Is there any way to make a slideshow out of the contents of the "General Tree Pics" thread..??...started to go through it earlier and got to about page 40 of 260 odd..lol

 

There are some awesome pics there, would make a great slideshow.

i beleive there is some software out there that creates albums from designated sources. i will look into it

[Andy R]

cool, it was the aussie comment that got me searching from the beginning, couldn't stop keep clicking on the next page....tis a shame that so many cool pics are lay idle.

[Steve Bullman]

its a question of where would i put the slideshow

[Andy R]

can't you host it ?

 

sorry don't know much about servers and what software is needed etc...I'm just an idea's guy..

[Steve Bullman]

yeah i'd host it, i mean i dont know where abouts on the site that i'd display it.

[Andy R]

ah right...I think I have another idea coming....yes..no..yes..maybe introduce a new section titled "SBTC's Great Idea's":001_tongue:

 

maybe add a link to page 1 of the general tree pic thread and site it somewhere other than on the main page...then each week or month or so you could update it.

i was thinking more along the lines of something like we have on the homepage with the classified adverts....pulling up 3 or 4 random photos at a time from anywhere within the general pics thread

[Andy R]

ok, Some of the photo's though are in sequence...as in 4 or 5 pics of a takedown etc, that kind of thing. Maybe it's the OCD kicking in but I kinda thought a regimented slideshow from pic 1 through to the last pic...I know it's only 18months old or so but some of the techniques/kit have changed in that time also..

You can create slide shows at

Then the slide show could be hosted within a thread in the same way that you tube clips are embedded?
