MMM-ImagesPhotos - Show images from a directory

[jproehl]

@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?

Do you want take this task?

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

This guy has won awards… AND he shows you how to build some of the things in this show…

It all started because his wife told him that she was responsible for decorating the inside of the house… HIS job was the outside… yeah I think he pulled it off ;)
