No big deal, I just moved your thread to the Dynamic Drive Scripts Help section.
To answer your question, you can cause the links to open in a new window like so (find this at the end of the code from Step 1):
Code:
function transport(){
window.location=photoslink[which]
}
Change it to:
Code:
function transport(){
window.open(photoslink[which], '_blank');
}
If you are at all familiar with, or are willing to learn about the window.open() function, there are many specifications you may make with it. See:

And/or if you have a specific question about it or its specifications, feel free to ask.
But be aware that opening a new window can be blocked by the user's browser.
That's unusual for something like this, but can happen. There are other ways to deal with presenting content to the user in a window-like interface (like Lightbox and other modal scripts) that, though more involved than opening a new window, as long as the user has javascript enabled (which they would need anyway to view the slide show) will not be blocked by the user's browser.
