phpSlideshow
Things can get way too complicated. This script uses php to make a dynamic image slideshow, but stays very simple to set up. Just put the "slideshow" folder on your webspace, put the images in the appropriate folder, and your done! Of course you need PHP4 or above. The ease of use is also helped with one configuration file holding all the varaibles that control everything from size of the slideshow, to time increment, etc.. This script also has some features I have not yet seen in others slideshows. For instance a preloading step to load all the images before the show starts, and a a choice to use manual controls, or keep everything automatic. Just check it out at my site by clicking "Visit" and you call see a demo, download for free, or just get more info on my scripts.
