Is anyone else having the problem that cooliris is just abysmally, abysmally slow to load/open new images? I assume that what is happening here is that cooliris is using the largest size image it can find, which is usually 3-5M for my galleries. Is there any way to force it to use a smaller image for the slideshows, or otherwise speed it up? Any suggestions welcome... |

And has anyone built a pure javascript slideshow module yet? It seems like one of the bazillion jquery slideshow plugins: http://speckyboy.com/2009/06/03/15-amazing-jquery-image-galleryslideshow-plugins-and-tutorials/ might make it pretty easy, but I'm guessing that since it hasn't happened there is some good reason that it is harder than it looks

@tieguy: working fine for me
I am however using "old" (full) style of Cooliris slideshow (see here (link to slideshow on the right, above sidebar)
I never was able to make current implementation working or like a "mini" style.
I am using "flashyourweb" minislideshow in the sidebar, and it would probably be easy to make it part of main content

minislideshow module:

the minislideshow seems to be a good solution, but seems to be for gallery 2. Although the link http://www.flashyourweb.com/staticpages/index.php?page=mini_2.0.5, claims to have G3 compatibility, all the supporting documentation seems to be gallery 2.
We need access to the cooliris options. Certainly there must be some option somewhere that says to grab a version smaller than the 5MB tiff picture?!
