I'm new to Gallery and so far loving it for my website. What I'm wondering ~ does anyone know if you can do a slideshow for your Facebook header in their new timeline? I would love to be able to change pictures, or slideshow, when someone is on my page.

Facebook does not allow that.
You may be able to do an animated gif, but I'm not sure.

That would be an absolutely amazing feature for FB to include, especially if you are running your own brand page.

To answer tempg's comment, unfortunately FB only allows static images and not gifs.

What about Pinterest? My daughter and son's birthday will be 3 weeks from now, they're both addicted to pinterest, we want to surprise them with an online gallery greeting using pinterest, I am not sure if it's possible but I will still try to ask anyone there, I am not so techy but atleast I can follow instructions, is this slideshow feature allowed on pinterest? Can I incorporate this application to my pinterest boardds and pins? Thanks.

I had this working with a flash swf slideshow within my Facebook header but then it stopped working after a week,
Fbook want the ads in their headers to be distinct I think so anything that distracts is a no no.
