How can I add a slideshow to the top of my gallery pages?
You can add a slideshow to the top of your gallery pages (like the one you see here) by using the SLIDESHOW() function in your gallery description.
Basic Functionality
To create a slideshow from a single gallery:
SLIDESHOW(gallery name)
To create a slideshow from a set of image ids:
SLIDESHOW(1,2,3,4,5)
Invalid image ids or images from an account other than your own will be skipped.
These 2 commands will get you a simple slideshow with all of the default settings.
Extra Options
You may add options within the parentheses in the form of option=value. Each option must be separated by a comma. Please ensure that the option is in lowercase.
- size
- set to small, medium, large, or original. Max original size is 800x800.
Default is 'medium'.
- delay
- set the time that an image is displayed in seconds. Minimum is 2 seconds.
Default is 5 seconds.
- link
- set to none or image. 'none' will disable the link to the current image's image page.
Default is 'image'.
- loop
- set to yes or no. 'no' will cause the slideshow to play only once.
Default is 'yes'.
- random
- set to yes or no. 'yes' will cause the slideshow to play in random order.
Default is 'no'.
Examples
A slideshow for your 'kittens' gallery might look like this:
SLIDESHOW(kittens, size=large, delay=3)
A slideshow for three given images might look like this:
SLIDESHOW(11111, 22222, 33333, size=original, delay=10, loop=no)
It does not matter in what order you specify options. All options are optional. If you specify more than one item outside of your options, we will attempt to lookup image_ids. We currently do not support the ability to list multiple galleries.

Direct Linking
-
- Paying PBase customers can direct link to their own public images as long as they have direct linking enabled on the image's parent gallery. If you try to direct link to images that are non-public or password-protected, it will fail.
-
- You can enable or disable direct linking for your whole account at the update account page.
You can enable or disable direct linking for a specific gallery in the advanced view of the edit gallery page.
If you disable direct linking, images that have already been linked to will still show up for a little while before they are updated. All other images are blocked from direct linking immediately.
-
- Unfortunately there is no way to tell who is direct linking your images.
However, please note that even if you have a very large counter value for your direct links, it does not necessarily mean that someone has illegally linked to your image. It has been found that the direct link counter is incremented even if you just copy the full URL of your image and paste it on your browser and press enter.
-
- To get the direct linking URL for an image, view the image and add .jpg or size.jpg to the end of the URL. This works just like linking to an image page but append .jpg to the end of the URL. example: www.pbase.com/image/image number.jpg example: www.pbase.com/image/image number/size.jpg Note: to direct link to a .gif, use the .jpg extension also. It will still send the gif file. You can also easily get the direct linking URL by viewing the edit image page and looking... (more)
