    I believe it. Here at The (Jackson, MS) Clarion-Ledger, galleries consistently are among the most popular pages. We could put a up gallery of anything – football games to Pavarotti – and it will still receive more hits than most of the stories.

    I am trialling the software in order to get it on board at my local daily newspaper, but am having problems.

    It just stalls every time I try and load even a couple of jpgs? I realise this is not the place to ask techy questions, but I can see that this is a great journalistic tool, and that more people should be using it!

    I’m actually surprised. In general, I hate slideshows on news sites. Then again, I’m the impatient type that doesn’t want to click and click and click and click…

    Sorry, I made a subconscious assumption that you were talking about Soundslides, which is what I was using.

    I tried smaller images, similar to the dimensions you suggest, but still couldn’t get SS to load up the jpgs?

    Thanks in advance

    @Richard: Then probably it is one of these things causing the problem.

    1. You saved the JPGs as “progressive.” Won’t work. Re-save each one.

    2. File size of JPGs still too large. Should be in the ballpark of 100 KB or less, each.

    3. Too many JPGs — like, 100.
