Does the slideshow on Smugmug refresh itself??

vaio2006

I want to the smugmug slideshow on one computer and update the photos on another and have the "slideshow" computer update the pictures automatically.

Does the slideshow on Smugmug refresh itself? Or if not, does anyone have a suggestion for soemthing that will do this?
(I know google slideshow does this but it puts in the ugly captions..)

The slideshow on smugmug runs off of photos in your smugmug galleries - so you need to upload the new photos to your galleries.

The homepage slideshow can run from the photos in a specified gallery, or it can use a feed. If you use a feed, the slideshow will change based on the photos that are picked up by the feed. For example, I use a keyword feed for my slideshow, and I tag photos that I want in the slideshow with the keyword deniseHome.

See the slideshow help at http://wiki.smugmug.com/display/SmugMug/Flash+Slideshow. If you want to use a feed you will use the feedURL parameter instead of the AlbumID parameter. No matter which you use, if you put new photos in the location in your galleries specified by your slideshow parameters they will automatically be part of the slideshow.

Examples of feeds can be seen at http://wiki.smugmug.com/display/SmugMug/Feeds+Examples.
