Loving the instructions at the start, nice touch. I thought the industrial pictures were fantastic, not saying there is anything wrong with the other images but those ones stood out for me.

Just one thing (although this is probably just me), on the menu it says slideshow for a list of your albums, I was expecting an auto slideshow.

I ´d love to start the folders "slideshow" as auto slideshow - unfortunately (at least I don ´t know how to do it) you can either start all folders in thumbnail view OR slideshow modus.
When searching for this topic in the forum it was already discussed under this post: https://forum.photo.gallery/viewtopic.php?t=3421
And as far as I understood there is currently no way to do it...

If someone knows how I can control that some folders start in slideshow mode and others in thumbnail view - that would be great!
Thanks in advance!

Your content is indisputable! - As for the "slideshow" folder, I dont really understand how that separates from the folders under "portfolio". They both just look like your personal work to me ... Perhaps whats under "slideshow" is more "photography"? Even if you could enable the "slideshow" function for the folders under slideshow, it still doesn ´t seem like a logical way to seem like a logical way to separate folders.

As in my answers to your "review" post, we hope to add some of the folder-specific functions you request.

With the "slideshow" folder I wanted to seperate the content that only belongs to a specific topic - meaning when I take my camera and take pictures only related to one incident e.g. "Henna night". Since this is like telling a story I thought the slideshow feature is the most suitable.
While in Portfolio only the top shots related to one specific topic are represented.
But I get your point - the line is not that clear and therefore doesn ´t seem logic.
Maybe a different naming like e.g. "Topic related" (I have to think about a better one) would make it more clear...
Or I stay only with the portfolio and use the "Most recent" folder to show the newest of my work.

What ´s your opinion?

And thanks for the input! :idea:

Well, I ´m no expert, it was just my initial thoughts triggered by carter2 ´s comments. Perhaps the "slideshow" folder should be called "events/places" or something like that instead?
