Vista - Slideshow

im using vista 5456 and i want the slideshow setting to work properly in the
sidebar. it only displays whats in the Public sample pictures and whats in
my own folder, but.. it dosent show all of them, 1 or 2 and the rest are
samples.
ive tried moving pics into every folder possible but still nothing.
its not a big deal but it would be nice.

Hah - If you want things to work "properly", stay away from betas ;-) Betas
are, by definition, things that don't work properly yet.

The slideshow thing works in terms of showing pictures from folders you
specify. Point to it, click the checkmark, and specify the folders you want.
I know it shows JPEG, GIF, and PNG files. But I don't know about other
picture types.

the next set of beta bits should fix the bug where you can't select the
folder in the slideshow gadget.
