    Slideshow pro makes a lot more sense when combined with director. It's an impressive solution, particularly the director interface, which is great and quite slick. A parallel mobile version without flash is now built into SSP.

    Limitations:
    1
    The CMS (director) is by definition limited to SSP, so it's not usable for any other part of a site.

    If you want to customize (beyond basic rearranging and colour changes) there is a lot of figuring out to do. There is a wiki and support forum, but I was still left scratching my head a little.

    Lastly there is an interesting blog post about integrating Expression Engine and SSP here (from a fellow Irishman no less): http://5pieces.com/blog/slidesho…
    Just spotted that it's from 2006 so things might have moved on a little since then!
