I'm not clear of the difference between a photo gallery and slide show.

In the final version of the club's web page, there will be a (teaser) slide show that is secondary to the other content including links to member's home pages, which will display their pictures. "Photo Essays" (group projects) will be slide shows that the viewer can click on to see what all we've done in the past.

It's there that we need to develop a "standard" so we can help each other with technical problems and new members who don't know about web pages, slide shows and the like. e.g. - KISS must be the operating rule of thumb.

The "biggie" we're looking at is a special club slide show that will be on display on a huge(!) flat panel at a luxury resort (who kind of subsidies the club). A smaller screen will be at the CofC building and will be moved to the fair grounds for two weeks, three times a year when they have major events going on.

Turning these various slide shows into screensavers as a way of raising money for the Humane Society is a possibility we're also considering.

There's no one around here that does web-pages so we're sort of feeling our way along in the dark.
