Free flash slideshow for your website

If you are looking for a cool, free flash slideshow player for your website, check out Simpleviewer. As suggested by the name, it is pretty simple :-).

Some nifty features include:

• Automatic resize according to the browser window size.
• It automatically starts downloading all the pictures in a particular gallery (folder) in the background. So, if the picture size is bigger, and your speed is low, it helps you to have a smoother experience, instead of waiting for each picture to load after clicking on the thumbnail.
• Control over the thumbnail strip (number of rows and columns).
• Backcolor, forecolor control.
• Easy gallery (xml) generation from Picasa.

Missing features:

• There is no auto advance feature (or slideshow). So, you have to click on each picture manually.
• No option to download the picture by right-clicking. You do, however, get an option to open the image in a new tab or window.
  

If you do not anticipate the total size of your albums to grow beyond 250 MB, I would suggest using Picasa web albums for hosting your images.
There are other free Flash albums available as well, but they all seemed to be lacking some features, although they looked cooler in whatever they did (For example, Slooz).
