 * Hello, great plugin by when using the slideshow all the images load to which 
   trained a long time to wait before the first display.
    Would be – it is possible
   to load than for example 6 images, generate the display and then to resume loading
   the other images ? Thks

 * No – what you are asking for specifically is not possible, particularly in any
   of the slideshow layouts. If you are using any of the gallery / lightbox-enabled
   layouts you can make use of the `more` shortcode attribute to load images in 
   clusters, but even there there is nothing which loads images in the background–
   images are loaded only when explicitly requested.

 * Too bad I could therefore not use slideshows with this plugin.
 * Thanks for the reply.

 * When I configure the “load more” feature in the gallery, the slideshow only displays
   however many have been loaded in the gallery so far. For example, if I load only
   10 pics at a time in a gallery that contains 25 pics total, and I have not clicked
   the “load more” button yet, when I click an image to launch the lightbox and 
   then start the slideshow, only those first 10 pics are available in the slideshow.
 * This seems to be opposite to the issue above, but I might have misunderstood 
   the original post. Is it possible to have a “load more” option within the slideshow(
   not just in the gallery)? Or, even better, an infinite scroll within the slideshow?
 * Thanks for an awesome plugin!
