This applet is copyright 1997 A&A Butterfield. However your are free to use it at will. I would, though, appreciate it if you would mention the author and put a link back to my homepage: http://www.ozemail.com.au/~butter. Of course there isn't much I can do if you don't though! :-)

Installation
  1. Download the file slideshow.zip.
  2. Expand the file into a new directory keep the directories as specified in the zip.

  4. Replace all image files in /images with your own except Title.gif which is used by the about screen.
  5. Edit index.html, specifically the applet tag. Change the Images tag to add the semicolon separated list of you filenames. Change the Titles tag to add the semicolon separated list of you titles. You can use either jpg or gif files. You can set the size of the applet to be as big as your largest image or the size of the target screen resolution. I used 770x550 which will fit onto a 800x600 screen if toolbar and status bar are hidden.
  6. Test the applet by viewing index.html in you browser.
  7. Publish on you web site.
