Multi Photo Quotes for a Dual Screen Digital Picture Frame

The-Future.jpg
A dc member wrote in to tell us about his dual-screen digital picture frame project, with step-by-step instructions on instructables.com, and how he used my Multi Photo Quotes program on it.

He writes:

"Thank you for this program.  I have used it for a Dual Screen Photo Frame.  I am making another for my parents, and was wondering if there was a way for MPQ to automatically refresh its photo directory, so when I add photos to their photo frame remotely, the photos wind up in the queue.  I know I could restart the screensaver, but I am trying to reduce the amount of remote access as possible.  I did notice that there is something in the commandline, but I am unsure of how to implement it, or how it would work.  Any help is appreciated, and thanks again for your hard work!"

Needless to say, I could not refuse a request for such a cool use, and a new version of Multi Photo Quotes was released to day with automatic detection and refreshing of image/quote changes -- so the software can now be used with dynamically updating images and text.
