i have figured out why the weather part doesnt work, the part that is shown in sideshow is suppesed to downloaded off of the sideshow webisite, which doesnt exist.

here's a few things i've done with sideshow. this program will be KILLER when its finished. right now its slow, ugly, a lot of annoying things going on. but what do you expect for an early beta? ;)

my guess is that the weather component can't locate the file sdshweather.ssh in the Slideshow directory. The weather component tells it to look at that file in the registry key:

My ComputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftSlideshowInstalledTicketTypes in the Weather.com value

If you delete this value, it still shows on the slideshow. It would be simple of someone could just find the sdshweather.ssh file

if its fake, then someone put a decent effort into and its worth using anyways.

It seems some sort of syndication function has already been made, as the Sideshow directory is full of pictures of news sites. Eg. Times, The Register etc. Unfortunately it's not included.

Quite a suprise for the Dutch: NewsFromNOS.bmp contains an image for the Teletekst site which is the same image used on omroep.nl.
