embed slide show

Is there a new solution for embedding a slide show in the new version of FTH?
I hope, I hope.

You just use a Flickr widget or an animated GIF... You have always been able to do that.

See here: www.flickrslideshow.com/

You need to copy/paste the resulting iframe code into source view of the editor. Some tweaking of the iframe code may be necessary, so give us a shout if it does not work quite right.

Also see here for animated GIFs: gifmaker.me/

I did embed a slide show, but it would not loop like a wanted. It will repeat by hitting the title in the lower left corner, but if you hit the large arrow (which would be instinctive) it takes you to the Picasa page. We are wanting it to play continuously.

Basically, use a different widget for this that properly allows for the looping... I would recommend an iframe based widget so you do not force your users to have flash loaded like your current implementation does.

Also, pay attention to the transparency setting. It is important to prevent the iframe/flash from overlaying login dialogs. Open the login dialog from your current page and you will see what I mean. The transparency setting prevents that issue.
