Slideshow for all the images

Hello Karl, in a week we'll have our 15th anniversary party and since our gallery, powered by X3, contains all the images from 2001, we'd like to show on a big screen a slideshow with all the images random picked.
Is it possible to do that using directly X3 and, if positive, how? I'd like to random pick all the images in all the folder and the structure is like this
CONTENT
---2015
------folder1
------folder2
------etc...
---2014
etc.
Thanks!

Unfortunately, that just isn't possible currently. That would require you to be able to set up a page, that loads photos from multiple gallery folders. Optionally, we may introduce an option that allows display of all images in all child folders, in a parent page.
These things are difficult in a website, but often more applicable from desktop apps like iphoto and picasa, where you can create virtual albums and smart albums.

Any idea about doing this using another script you know or something like that?

Unfortunately no. It's not a bit too much to expect from a website?
Don't you have all these photos locally in a desktop application like picasa or iphoto? These applications are perfect for creating slideshows of multiple events/albums.
