Summer Coding 2010 ideas - Shotwell - shortinfo

The main page for this idea is http://trac.yorba.org/wiki/SummerCodeIdeas.

Status: Proposed

Summary of idea: Shotwell is the default photo manager in Fedora 13. Yorba (the open source group that develops Shotwell) is looking for students interested in working on two different aspects of Shotwell this summer.

First, slideshows. Today, Shotwell's slideshows are primitive: photos are simply displayed in succession with no transitions of any sort. We'd like to implement fancier slideshows with cool-looking transitions. If time permits, it would be great to add captions and/or music to slideshows as well.

Second, printing. Today, printing in Shotwell is basic: you can simply print one photo per page on a white background. We'd like to let the user print multiple photos per page, choose fancy borders and background colors and so on.
