I had a similar idea in the past, but it got buried with tons of other features. I’ve just bumped its priority so hopefully I should be able to do something for this in the coming months.
@sebagr Honestly; it seems like I’m the only one asking for this feature. I can’t imagine this would not be massively appreciated though… So I thought I’d check in to ask if this is still something worth pursuing and on your list?
Absolutely! I like this idea very much and is high on my list, but there are other things up there too. I’m currently working on the first public API, and a full rework of the Telescope Simulator with many new features.
For your particular idea I’ve been thinking about possible features, one thing lead to another and it makes sense to do it after I add picture albums. I plan to let anyone create albums, by selecting images from their own profile or even from other profiles, and then you’ll be able to create a slideshow for any album. So the idea would be to first create an album, public or private, and then share it like a plain old album with clickable thumbnails, or as a slideshow.
I’m hoping to be able to do it in the coming months
Sounds awesome, and man; I can’t wait! And this will give you an opportunity to get more external exposure of Telescopius, perhaps in the form of a modest link
Just a quick update, I’ve just released an upgrade that enhances the full screen display of pictures, similar to slideshows. It’s on version 250120.1950 and above.
On compatible devices (almost all devices except the iPhone), the whole screen will be used to show images instead of just the browser window. You can navigate any gallery or album this way, so if you’d like to have some kind of slideshow, you can create an album with the pictures you want and just open the first one in full screen. Then navigate back and fort from there.
There are still a few rough edges but it should now be usable as a slideshow.
