Hi all,
as you might know, I am the author of iBatch 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 !!).

addslides.lha
Donnot forget to download wizard.library (follow links from iBatch Website).

Thanx for your support, feel free to contact me via iBatch {at] web dot de

Gero (gerograph)

EDIT: download wizard.library from iBatch website

Take a look at those 2 excellent free transparent PNG icons web sites:

http://www.iconfinder.com/ and
http://www.iconarchive.com/

There are some very good stuff you can download and use in your project[s].

Hope this helps for a while :)

Oh no, I just checked again... I did not look closely at the Icons themsselves. However apart from what quoted above, you can even filter by license. In this case it boils down to about 20 different Icons, which is really good ! THANX !!!

I guess, I can only go for "Free for commercial", "Creative Commons" and "GPL", Licens models, as I

- redistribute
- donnot want to put links on every button set
- it may become comercial, because I cannot guarantee, that generated slideshows will also be used comerically...

However, I guess I could use quiet a few...
