Feature Request: Lightbox slide show and sharing

[Chris]

1.  SLIDE SHOW

Now that we can go NEXT and PREVIOUS through the images in the lightbox, add a slide show capability.  This would automatically take the user through each image.  Perhaps some checking of the media type might be needed.  (I wouldn't expect a slide show to automatically move past a .wav or .avi file.)  Perhaps the slide show would be initiated by pressing a button from the top level.  Let the user set the viewing duration and whether or not to continually cycle through the images once reaching the end.  The implementation might done using a simple meta-refresh or javascript.

2.  SHARE WITH OTHERS

Allow the lightbox to be shared in a read-only mode with others.  Much like sending a postcard, this would let a user collect images to their lightbox and then email a URL to someone so that person could view the contents of the lightbox.

3.  SEND SLIDE SHOW LIKE POSTCARD

Expanding on the above, also allow a user to send a URL to someone to view a slide show of the lightbox.

IS there anyone out there who is willing to make this mod
and also add a forth feature,
  To incorporate background music when slideshow is running...
   maybe music could be selected from (1) specific category within 4images database

I would be willing to pay for such a Mod, any takers?
PM me if you are interested...

I tried something like this a few weeks ago. But it turned out to be much more complex than I expected. The lightbox is tightly bound to the logged-in user, this causes numerous problems.
Now I choose another and very simple solution for my task. I modified search.php to accept a user_id as a special paramter. Than all the images in the lightbox from the given user_id are shown as the search result.

If you are interested send me an email. But you must have php knowledge to implement my solution! As my search.php has hundreds of modifications I cannot just give you my file or a simple "mod".
