Hello:
I have the script below that I'm using for a slide show on a page in a web built based on the Beerhouse project. It would be neat, if I could load the photos by logging in as Admin and add them to the slideshow  from the Admin menu.

I was wondering if there were any existing samples for that? Or if not, any help to add that feature to the Admin folder would be greatly appreciated!

=========== code i'm using for slideshow ===============

<script runat="Server" type="text/C#">
        [System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
        [System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethod]
        public static AjaxControlToolkit.Slide[] GetSlides()
        {
            AjaxControlToolkit.Slide[] slides = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide[8];

            slides[0] = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide("images/GB.jpg.jpg", "The Old House", "GB");
            slides[1] = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide("images/Colors 002.jpg", "The Old House", "Front View");
            slides[2] = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide("images/Colors 028.jpg", "The Old House", "Side View");
            slides[3] = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide("images/Colors 029.jpg", "The Old House", "Our Workers");
            slides[4] = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide("images/Colors 030.jpg", "The Old House", "Our equipment");
            slides[5] = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide("images/FinColors 001.jpg", "The Old Baker House", "Work on the DeBergh House");
            slides[6] = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide("images/FinColors 002.jpg", "The Old House", "House2");
            slides[7] = new AjaxControlToolkit.Slide("images/FinColors 009.jpg", "The Old House", "Front View");

          
          return(slides);
        }
    </script>

If you study how the file uploading works in the BeerHouse site, you ashould be able to easily adapt it to what you want. 

I'm not sure how to put it into the slide show.

 The best thing to do is to put all of your slideshow images into a separate folder, say Images/slideshow.

Then, in your GetSlides method, just pull all the slides from that folder to make the array of slides that the slideshow will use.

using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using AjaxControlToolkit;

public partial class SlideShow : Page
{
   protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
   }

   [System.Web.Services.WebMethod, System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethod]
   public static Slide[] GetSlides()
   {
      string imagesPath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~/images/slideshow/");
      DirectoryInfo directoryInfo = new DirectoryInfo(imagesPath);
      ArrayList slides = new ArrayList();

      foreach (FileInfo fileInfo in directoryInfo.GetFiles())
      {
         Slide slide = new Slide("images/slideshow/" + fileInfo.Name, "The Old House", fileInfo.Name);
         slides.Add(slide);
      }

      return slides.Cast<Slide>().ToArray();
   }
}

Thanks Lee.
