MultiFrame Image Slideshow script

[evangogh]

I was wondering if it is possible to modify this MultiFrame Image Slideshow script http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...frameslide.htm so that the different images will appear on different parts of the page, rather than just in a horizontal or vertical row. I would like to create a splash page that is made up of several images coming in to make up the entire background.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hmmm I don't think this is the best script to accomplish this, especially since one of your creteria is that the images eventually make up the entire background. You'll need quite a few new calculations to do this. Unfortunately I'm not aware of any script on DD presently that can be easily modified to do what you're looking for.

Thanks for saving me a lot of headbanging against the wall! I'll explore some other options...

Hello, I need some help too with this Multiframe slideshow script. I have applied it to my webpage but for some reason i want the slides to appear HORIZONTALLY and not vertically.

Can someone assist how I can get the slides to appear horizontally. At the moment I am revealing 4 slides at a time with the fade effect but its vertically at moment.

Here is my code:
<script type="text/javascript">
