Alternative: click Add Media, click Upload Files, upload the images from your computer without inserting them into the post; close the popup window and type this in the Text editor:

A couple of the WordPress blogs I follow are now using slide shows and they start automatically when I visit, thus slowing things down even further. I know I can click the pause button, but if there are several of these on their home page...

Is there any way to disable these, either as a WordPress option or does anyone know what script or item I can block without disabling all of WordPress? I use both NoScript and AdBlocker on Firefox.
Thanks for any suggestions

I have a page in which I want to insert 4 to 5 slide shows. The problem I encountered is that by the time I create second slide show (with images taken from another folder than the first one) both slide shows are showing the same images. I understand why. Because all my images are uploaded in the same Media Gallery. However, is there a possibility to set which images will enter in the first slide show and which enter in the second one?

Regards,
Sebastian

We regularly use slideshows on our project blog (riversidemuseum.wordpress.com) and like to have captions explaining what you're seeing in each photograph, particularly when there is an object or action of significance. However, WordPress slideshows simply throw the caption text on top of the image - ruining the image and at times making the text unreadable. Can this be fixed? I've a feeling not, but any help or tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I looked at the http://en.support.wordpress.com/slideshows/ and did not find anything. the rockyou server seems to be unstable in terms of security because I got a notification from them advising that the site has been hacked into. and when I logged into it, my slide shows were gone. slide.com would work if it were not for the silly little pop up that comes with the sideshows. I know Google recently acquired it so that may change soon. the wordpress slide show option would work if I can control the transition speed but there does not seem to be an option for that. vodpod may not work because I only do still photography.

This will display all your Gallery images, one by one, at the full width available for your theme and linked to the image file. If you are concerned about image quality (and you should be) upload the image at the maximum available width for your theme.

To devolve to just images on a page, no slideshow or gallery, just remove the appropriate shortcodes, but then you have to insert each image one by one into the post/page.
