    I have setup about 4 quick and dirty public feeds for this Widget, the URL to browse them is below, ignore my last link, as I've centrally located all feeds. http://www.32oz.com/mirror/chumby/

    Tommy's right, there should be no redraw from picture to picture. The white flash makes this light up my room at night. No way to just flick from one photo to the next? Also, I know that the widget is named 'PhotoFrame'. Branding your widget is good, I suppose, but it distracts from my fantastic photos! Since you 'intro brand' the widget anyway, why not dump the text from the upper left corner? Otherwise, I love this widget! I've been looking to develop a similar one, and this fits the bil perfectly. Where can we post 'public' chumby feeds for this widget? www.32oz.com/mirror/hymmt/rated_pg

    This works really sweet! I'm using photos scaled down to 320x240. That's what makes this so good. I don't mind using up a few meg on a server to hold a large number of small files. But I'm not going to fill up my Flickr account with mini-photos either, which is why the other photo widgets just don't work for me. PhotoFrame is great! My only requested changes for it would be: 1) Turn the screen black between photos, rather than white. The flash from that is distracting. Or do some other sort of transition. 2) The randomness seems truly random, which isn't what people actually want when they ask for random. They really want random, but with no repeats until all photos have been displayed.
