You can also enable/disable the slide show, site visitors can also disable the slide show by pressing the pause/play button.

On top of the button there is an ad-display-time indicator, it will show the time left before moving forward to next ad, ad-display-time indicator can be disabled, color can also be changed.

Image format can be JPG or SWF, you can also load gif or png if you open the fla file and publish it for flash 8. Now it only requires flash player 7.
Images can also be animated swf files if you like.

You receive the source file, but the ads loader can also work as standalone application, you do not need the flash program to set the images to be loaded and other options, the settings can be changed by editing the configuration file with a text editor.

Each ad/image can open a given url on click, the url would be the page that is showing more details about the product or service in the image. The url is optional, if none is set then nothing happens when image is clicked.

Requirements

- Users need flash player 7 to see the ads, it is installed on over 98% of online computers.
- Text editor is needed to add/remove images and set the options.
- The images that show your products or items you are trying to promote.
- If you also want to edit the source file then you need Flash MX 2004 or later, but editing the source file is not required unless you want to do some advanced modifications.

Quest, you can use external images if the other server allows you to load images from it. do a search at Adobe site, it is called "cross domain scripting" or soemthing similar.

Is there a way to use external images as well? I would like to use this on multiple servers.

Ahhh, I see. I am using some development software, Firebug and YSlow in Firefox that is making it look like there is no expires header on these images, and it appears that the images are loading over and over again.

Hello John, the images remain cached in the browser once they are loaded, you will see that when it finishes the loop and loads first image again the button doesn't blink (not loading the image from server).

Adrian,
I have been using your product for a while now and just noticed that it constantly grabs the image from the server. This seems to be really bad as far as bandwidth usage.
Do you adjust the expires header when getting the image?
Can you change the code to just grab the image once, store it in memory and then display that image after the first loop?
