slideshow

What is the best way to create an inline slideshow of images like the one they usually put on the first page and some articles on the http://www.nytimes.com site?

Required features:
1) The slideshow must be a view - for flexibility and easy placement in a node's body. The list of images must be derived from the view naturaly.
2) The slideshow must have some sort of controls: 1, 2, 3... links or "previous"/"next", etc. There must be some sort of manual control. This I think excludes the Views Slideshow module for the moment, since manual controls are not implemented there yet.

Hej,
Jag har letat väldigt mycket för att hitta en bra lösning på det jag vill göra, har hittat mycket som är i närheten men inte precis det jag söker.
Jag kör Drupal 6
Egentligen är det ganska enkelt:

Just wanted to share a quick theme override that others might find useful.

For a group blog site we've been building (http://www.newamerica.net/blog), the Slideshow module is a great way to give users an easy way to drop images into their posts. The only problem was that, more often than not, someone would decide to post only one image -- which results in an unnecessary header of "Previous | Image 1 of 1 | Next".

SlideShowPro is a nifty customizable Flash slideshow. There is a Drupal integration now: http://drupal.org/project/slideshowpro. Check out the screencast:

I just added a new slideshow mode to the Views Slideshow module. You can see a demo at Drupal Hub. It uses JQuery and views, so any type of view could be made into a slideshow. The current modes are single frame, as seen in the left sidebar of the demo page, and with 'thumbnails' as shown on the content of that page.

I also revamped the themes for it, making it easier to theme specific elements of the slideshow.
