The Story of Ramses-new show posted at Beechbrook

[goddi]

As I mentioned in the Author's Notes, this show is a very emotional show for me. I prepared it for the AHURA (Humanitarian Association for Animal Rescue). After coming across the images and the story behind them, I had to memorialize the event and give it to the association for their use.

It is hard for me to switch gears now and talk about the mechanics of the show. This is the show where I found that, even though I had checked the box to keep the last slide on the screen, the show would flip to the first slide. Since the last slide has hot links to the AHURA website, their blog and an email address, I wanted it to stay on that last slide. So my ultimate fix, until Igor finds the problem, is to add 60 seconds to the last slide. I would like to know if anyone would leave the show on the screen for a longer period and let me know if the same thing happens on their PC. Thanks...Gary

P.S. Thanks to Nobeefstu for his template (Begin_v560.zip) that he created in PTE that allowed me to include the introductory Notice. I tweaked what he had a bit to work it into my show.

ADDED LATER:

Beechbrook decided not to post the PTE show on its site:

"This organization is certainly a wonderful cause for sure. What a very sad story !!! However the images are far too graphic to place them on Beechbrook.Com. They do not fit my disclaimer clause of: 'Our web site is child safe and family friendly. The content and material found on beechbrook.com is suitable for all audiences.' "

The slideshow depicts a true story of an Animal Rescue organization dealing with an abused dog. Though the story is sad, I do feel that the average person should be able to view the story. I have put it on MediaFire for you to make your own choice (10Mb):

I posted my show here at PTE right after I uploaded it to Beechbrook. I guess he has not had time to post it yet. Check back later, I hope there wasn't a problem.

Thanks... Gary

Well, that story is more than sad; it is sickening, and makes me want to have five minutes alone with the lowlife scumbag that did that to a defenceless dog. He'd need more than a vet afterwards.

As for the show reverting to the first slide, that did not happen on my machine, and I left the last page on-screen for about five minutes or more.

The computer is a Dell Inspiron laptop, Intel Centrino duo-core 1.8 GHz, 3 GB ram, nVidia GeForce 8600M-GT video card, and running Windows XP SP3.

That seems to point to the way your computer is running the show, maybe a memory problem. I would try running a memory test program, memtest 86 or better, to prove or remove any possibility of a problem.

Colin,

Thanks for taking a look at the slideshow. Stand in line. It is unbelievable to me what one can do to an animal. But thank goodness for the people who volunteer for the AHURA organization.

Also, thanks for testing to see if the last slide came on. Very strange. I have found that it happens to old PTE shows that I have made many years ago. I wonder what the heck it could be. Since it seems to be happening only to me, it must be my PC. But it makes no sense!!! I'll do more testing.

Thanks... Gary
