Sorry all, I’ve fallen a bit behind in responding to comments. [Bad Rogue! hmm, is that an oxymoron?]

Traci: You’ve probably noticed the ’silkier smoother’ slideshow 2.0. Thumbnails ‘apparate.’ We hope you and your clients are likin’ it.

Raul: Thanks for the heads up, I’ll pass it along.

Shogun: Those bugs should all have been hunted down and dealt with by now. If you are experiencing any difficulties, give the Support Heroes a holler.

It works great in MSIE but in Firefox3B4 I just get a black screen.

With regards to the new video flash features, also have a look here which may give you some ideas. I particularly like the instant preview when you hover over a thumbnail.

I read in your notes that in the new slideshow option, I can turn off the thumbnails at the bottom of the page; however, when I e-mailed Smugmug about how to do that, Dustin told me that it wasn’t possible to turn off the thumbnails. Is there a way to do it, because I like for my clients to see a slideshow with just the one image and no other distractions on the page. Thanks.

Love the new slideshow. Beautiful. It even beats Phanfare for stills. Can’t wait for the new video stuff.

PS… Still hoping and crossing fingers for longer length restrictions on video.

Hi Dan, as always, tackling bugs is a full-time job here. The best course to alert us when you are having difficulty is to contact a Support Hero at our help desk. They’re always standing by to save the day.

It does not appear to work with my setup either when using Firefox 2.0.0.12, but does if I use IE (both under Vista).

In Linux / Firefox 2.0.0.12 there is a green box where the slideshow button should be. When I click the green box a small black window opens up with no images visible. Any attempt to resize the small window cause it to close.
