Slideshow in OD

from WinCustomize Forums
So I'm in sort of minimilist mode right now--I've eliminated all of the widgets from my desktop, and am relying on a combination of OD docklets and a couple widgets in Right Click to replace functionality. There is one thing missing, however: my pictures. Judge has a nice desktop picture widget for AveDesk and Sysstats, but it doesn't work well on OD (not surprising, since it's not really supposed to). Is there anything else out there that would allow me to have a slide show in a zoomer dock. Currently, I'm using an additional dock with 10 pictures in it, and am happy with the size of the images when zooming. I have a two year old and like to always have a few images of him with me. I've never done anythign for OD or sysstats, but would be willing to try if anyone has any advice.

Just take Judge's Desktop Picture sysstats config, and edit it so that the object is square (i set mine to the size that my dock zooms to, 192X192). Hide the controls and the frame (they don't look right resized), and then enter the directory where the pictures are at into the config dialog (instead of dropping them onto the object), and then you have what I was looking for. Judge also has the delay time set quite high by default (I don't recall what it was, but at least ten minutes), while that is fine, it made it hard to tell if my changes worked. I ended up resetting the time to 30 seconds, but that's up to individual taste. Modified in these ways, Judge's object works great with OD.
