as you might know, I am the author of iBatch http://www.geobiz.de/iBatch.html and some other little utilities. I am Amiga User since 1990. I need your help for a little softwareproject:
Addslideshow...
..is a little utility which adds a "slideshow executable" to a given image directory. Once you click the "slideshow executable" a slideshow will be started in order to show all images of the given directory. Addslideshow itself will let you choose several options:
1. different slideshow executables / modules (ranging from basic to slideshows with all bells and whistles)
2.Fading effect
3.Introtext
3.backgroundwallpaper
4.navigation buttons
5.Imageframes
6.delaytime
7. target architecture
This is how you can contribute to "Addslideshow":
0) betatest/support for Apple Macintosh (PPC/i86) "slideshow modules"
1) create/send me simple wallpapers/backgrounds in different resolutions
2) create/send me frames
3) create/send me a button set
4) if you are really into it, you could try to create your own "slideshow module" in Hollywood (or any other crossplatform system), if there is any interest I will puplish a workshop, you donnot need deep programming skills to do that (as long as you use "Hollywood"). It might be a good project for hollywood beginners.
However, here is an archive containing several things which might help you:
1) pdf doc with screenshots: this will show you, what wallpapers, buttonsetes etc. are about
2)addslides.lha: An alpha release of Addslideshow, in order to test your contribution (if you want !!).
