Sorry for the totally n0ob question...I'm thinking of adding a soundtrack, but I know lots of people don't like hearing audio when they visit a site. What's the easiest way for me to add one of those "turn off the music" things on the page?

Thanks..

Hi Eric,

We currently it is not possible to stop the background music. Once loaded if plays and if you have the repeat option on it will play till the user goes to a next page or closes the browser.

We are thinking of adding two new features for the next update:
1. on/off button - however as this button will be placed on the slideshow it is difficult to skin it so that always fits your design and does not disturb the slideshow. Suggestions are welcome!

2. an option to play the music only when the user goes with mouse over the slideshow. When he goes out the music fades out, when he goes in the music fades in. We have used this technique for some flash headers see for example www.ikkeben.nl

maybe for the option 1 - the icon to turn music on/off should show only when the user goes in with the mouse?

So let me know what you like best and we will see what is the best way to add this functionality.

Greetings,
George
