From the details you and the skin package you sent me by email:
... on other skins this background randomizes, i mean, it changes every 3-5 seconds, but in this skin it stucks for 5-6 mins, i want to change this time, but i can´t find wherelse this lies, where i can change this time, note for one thing i do go already in Picture Settings and change it to 5 seconds but it won´t work.
I believe you're thiking that
Settings > Pictures > Slideshow > Amount of time to display each image: 5 sec, controls the background transition timing in the skin, but it doesn't. That one refers to when viewing pictures yourself as a slideshow.

Background transition time is hardcoded in the modded skin version you sent me, notice the
timeperimage tag below - that is in milliseconds, 30000 ms = 5 mins. If you search for multiimages like this one you will find it about 25 times in 21 files. You can obviously change these values in each file, but it's probably best to ask for a feature or try to understand and develop it yourself, a new settings in the Skin settings that would allow the user to control the timing.
Code: Select all
