Looking for a flash slideshow that can display 6 - 8 images full screen one after the other in a fade in -fade out sequence type of thing.

Any ideas or examples, preferably free of course. :D
 
Thanks, I have tried that before and it is very good but looking for something that will display each image full screen.
 
Aha, of course, that would be the pro version and that costs a little iirc.
 
I'll have a look at the pro

My 'folio site resizes to fill the browser page dependant on the browser dimensions, and gives an option for full screen if the user wants it.

It took a while to find the optimum size for the original images so that the resizing didn't screw it up and lose bits due to awkward aspect ratio's.

I got it from here.

As a matter of interest what size did you go for in the end?

1920x1000

I use a PS droplet to resize the image to 1000px high, then drop it centered into a new canvas 1920x1000, so it effectively gets big black borders left and right for centering.

Height is the control dimension as I shoot portraits, so I went extra wide and it can now crop a little off the sides to get the aspect ratio without afecting the central image.

I did try smaller images with the same 19:10 ratio, but on larger displays the image quality was not good due to the flash doing the scaling up. Scaling down works fine.
 
Thats useful to know, thanks. A decent portfolio part of my website is next on the cards, and one of the key things I wanted to get sorted was images resizing as needed.
