Problem with automatic wordpress upgrade resolved
By admin on February 5, 2010
I’m sorry if you tried to use the automatic upgrade to install the new version of the Wordpress widget, and you got a critical error. When I uploaded the new version to the Wordpress plugins site, I completely missed the fact that only those files that already existed where updated. The new ones weren’t, so they were missing at the moment of installation.
I corrected that error, and now the automatic install and upgrade from the Wordpress plugins repository is working.
I apologise for any inconvenience. And please keep posting your problems and questions in the support forum.

Version 1.3 has been released!
By admin on February 5, 2010
Finally, version 1.3 of the Creative Clans Slide Show has been released: the do-it-yourself version, and the Wordpress widget.
I will put up the documentation as soon as possible. In the mean while, you can use the documentation included in the zip files.
New features
* A title can be set (Wordpress widget only)
* Slides can be loaded through a proxy, enabling cross domain image loading
* The transparancy of the slide show’s background can be set
* A watermark image, its transparancy, position and full-window display can be set
* A new border type: image
* The possibility to set a different target window for each slide
* The possibility to load all images (jpeg, gif and png) in a folder
* The possibility to use dynamic xml creation, which should resolve any write permission problems (Wordpress widget only)
* The possibility to choose if images must be resized to fit the slideshow window
License
The flash slideshow Wordpress widget is released under the GNU/GPL license.
The CCSlideShow.swf flash file included in the widget is released under this license. As long as the flash file is a part of the CCSlideShow Wordpress widget, you are free to use it as if it was released under GNU/GPL as well. If you want to use it outside of the CCSlideShow Wordpress widget, then you’ll have to abide the rules of this license.
The license for version 1.3 hasn’t changed, so the version 1.2 license is still valid.

Version 1.3 status update (february)
By admin on February 2, 2010
Good news: version 1.3 of the Creative Clans Slide Show will be released Friday 5 February!
Work on version 1.3 of the slide show has made considerable progress these last few days, at least the do-it-yourself version and the Wordpress widget. These two are in the final testing stage, and the basic documentation is almost complete.
Unfortunately, the Joomla module, which seemed easier than the Wordpress widget, has proven to be more complex. And to avoid other delays, I’ve decided not to release all three together. The Joomla module will be released later, when it’ll be ready.
I had hoped to release the new slide show with some nice border images, but nobody has sent me any, and I have had no time to make any. So if you want to use that feature, you’ll have to make them yourself. Of course, until friday, and also after that day, you are more than welcome to send me your artistic efforts.
As said, the basic documentation is ready. And I think it is quite clear and complete. But of course I may be wrong. It might be completely obscure to someone that doesn’t know exactly how the slide show works. So don’t hesitate to let me know if something is missing, or if something isn’t clear. And if someone wants to make a tutorial with screen shots, or something like that, please send it to me and I’ll publish it on the site. I had wanted to make one myself, but there are not enough hours in a day…
So, the waiting has almost finishes. Three more days, and then the new version will be there. With these great new features.

Flash slideshow Wordpress widget version 1.2.2 released
By admin on January 12, 2010
I know you’ve all been waiting for version 1.3, but something came up suddenly last week, and this version release is the result.
This new version of the free flash slideshow wordpress widget is again the result of the feedback of one of you. So don’t hesitate and post your praise, questions, comments and critics. It all helps to make a better product!
So, what’s new? Version 1.2.2 resolves a problem that occurred on at least some sites that are hosted with GoDaddy. So is your site GoDaddy hosted, and didn’t the slide show work for you, then try again with this new version. It should work. Let me know if it doesn’t!
Version 1.2.2 has no new functionality, so for more information about its use and the license I’ll just point you to the previous version.

Version 1.3 status update (november)
By admin on November 30, 2009
When the development of the new version of the slide show started, it wasn’t meant to take such a long time. But along the way, the amount of work grew and grew.
Right now, the do-it-yourself version is ready and tested. But the documentation has to be finished before it’ll be released, to avoid a flood of support questions.
Once the do-it-yourself version has been released, work on the Wordpress widget and Joomla module will start.
If you would like to try out the new version without waiting for the documentation and the official release, please let me know.
