Doing it with style
Hover the image to show the controls - previous, next, play and thumbnail bars. Hover the thumbnail bars to see a preview of that image. When hovering a control then all the other controls will be removed from view.
Clicking the 'play' control will run auto play starting at the first image. This will hide all controls except 'pause', clicking this will stop auto play at the current image.
Tap the image to show the controls and tap off the image to hide the controls. The control actions are the same as the PC controls above. For the iPad the thumbnail bars work by tapping the bar to show the thumbnail then tap the thumbnail to view the image. Tap off the slideshow to hide the controls.
The previous, next and play controls are permanently shown at the bottom of the image. The thumbnail bars are removed The pause control is shown at the bottom center of the image when auto play is running.
The control icons are from my webfont and can be any color and size you like, controlled using the stylesheet. I will be adding more icons to this font as required.
