The SlideShow application was developed to be a simple program that allows very rudimentary viewing and manipulation of images. It was originally written so I could quickly preview, resize and rename images for a project I was working on. It was orginally written in Visual Studio 6.0 using C++ and MFC. Since then, I've migrated it to Visual Studio 2002, 2003, 2005 and 2008.One of the original challenges for this program was to maintain a "frame rate." To accomplish this, while one image is being desplayed the program loads and decodes the next image. It still "lags" if the delay is too short and/or the images are large.
