Hi, Great job with this Module (really easy to understand),
It is a way to display an imagen according some parameter ? like the day of the week ? I will like to use as Alternative Calendar for my 5 Years old son, images like Music Note to don’t forget his Music instruments on Thursdays or Swimming course Tuesdays and Thursdays and so on… Your Modul is perfect for that, unfortunately i don’t know how to program as filters. Can you help me with this idea ?
Thanks in advance

@roramirez Nice work! Would it be difficult to create a module that loads a photo from a web site instead of from a folder? There are a bunch of photographers that have web pages with incredible photos that would be nice to cycle through.

roramirez

@jproehl Sound good! The directory have indexes?

jfodor

@roramirez oh no i’m not that good at coding or git hub. i’m trying to get better but prefer to help out where i can.

I just edited your ReadMe file to fix the width and height options (and some other small things). I hope you get the request. I’m new at this.

Now they should read:
maxWidth and maxHeight

I’ve decided to just create 2 seperate .gif files in PS… each with several images, and adding a timelapse of about 3 - 4 seconds per picture. along wih several other options that I can add to the pictures… Use this with SimpleLogo that I have bottom_left and bottom_right… this should look pretty sweet? > I should point out I have not tried this yet, and do not know if SimpleLogo actualy supports .gif… I will try a sample .gif to see… Nothing ventured, nothing gained eh? ;-)

Holy smokes… that’s taking the long way around LOL
