Because both products dynamically retrieve content from outside the SWF (on request), you can link to thousands of images if you'd like. = I have a mix of images at different sizes. Can SlideShowPro handle them? = Yes. By default, both SlideShowPro for Flash and SlideShowPro for Lightroom automatically downscale (proportionally) imagery that is too large to view within the slideshow area. If smaller, they're loaded as-is with no scaling. You can change this to "Proportional" so that smaller images are upscaled, "Crop to Fit" to scale your content to fill the content area, or "None" if you'd rather not detect size and load all content "as is." = Does SlideShowPro create thumbnail images for its navigation? = No. If using SlideShowPro for Flash with SlidePress by itself, you need to either create those images by hand or with one of our free extras. If using SlideShowPro for Flash with SlideShowPro Director, Director creates all thumbnail imagery automatically. = What image formats can SlideShowPro for Flash load? = If the SWF containing SlideShowPro for Flash is published as Flash Player 8 or higher, SlideShowPro can display GIFs, PNGs, baseline and progressive JPGs. If the SWF is published as Flash Player 7, you may load baseline JPGs only. = Can SlideShowPro for Flash load SWFs? = Yes, though it wasn't designed for loading them. SWFs without interactive elements will work fine, but loading SWFs with buttons or other interactive elements is not recommended. = Can SlideShowPro for Flash load video? = Yes. See the [Video content section](http://wiki.slideshowpro.net/SSPfl/UG-SlideshowContnet) for more information on acceptable formats. == Screenshots == 1.
