I would like to be able to open the slideshow in a new window. Anyone else think that would be useful?

I've thought about that too, but I don't really know how to open up the window. Not in terms of how it can be done using JavaScript but merely what the user should click on. The only thing I can imagine right now is to display the first slideshow image as a "poster frame" and open a new window with the slideshow when the user click's on that. Any other suggestions?

In terms of what to click it can be something as simple as a theme-able link saying "slideshow" in the node links array. This would mean adding another item to hook_menu. I also really like how the thickbox module does it.

Take a look at
Thickbox module
and the examples at

Ah! Forgot to close my link! Just click on my name in the above comment and it goes to a jQuery Thickbox example page.
