With the launch of the MIT Sites service, Drupal Cloud is being phased out. Effective January 2, 2024, no new Drupal Cloud sites will be created. Students, faculty, and staff are invited to visit sites.mit.edu to create a new MIT website.

We don't yet have a slideshow or carousel feature built into the service, but we are looking at a few options for adding something like this to our product roadmap. We'd love to have input from the community on what would be most helpful here.
In the meantime, I have done a little with the Views functionality to create a sort of image slideshow. I created a content type with fields for Title, Body (caption), and Image (upload), and then used a view to show one at a time, with a pager and AJAX enabled to move forward and backward through the images.
Here's an example that I helped somebody create: http://neuronic.mit.edu/interests/my-life
I'm working on another example that will use CSS Injector to apply styles to a similar view, but it's not ready for prime time yet. :)

Hello,
I am very interested in learning how to do a slide show like the one mentioned by csgiles. Would someone be able to help me with the AJAX coding?
Thank you,
Elaine
