This is a very nice Widget.
I think it just lacks 2 things, first, randomize multiple photos from a local folder, and second, I can't get it to work with RSS feed from Flickr.
Thanks for the quick response. I am very pleased that you have taken interest in my case and that you are willing to investigate the possibilities. Whether you find a solution or not, I really do appreciate the effort.
Tom, I just tested the current slideshow implementation of upcoming v 2.0 with a playlist that grabs a local image that is changing periodically like a webcam, and is not working because of internal optimization, but I will look into this matter (although is very specific and rare...). However, I can't promise it will work (perhaps I'll find a simple solution that will not break optimization?...)
This does almost exactly what I want, but lacks one feature. I want to be able to refresh a local image like with an internet image. I want to use it to show my most current weathercam image, which is periodically stored in a file on my computer. Perhaps with v2, I will be able to make a slideshow naming two images that are the same file and that will cause it to refresh?
