 * is it possible to be able to pause the slideshow on mouseover? Would another 
   plugin enable this? Am using latest version of NextCellent.

 * You could try a lightbox plugin also. Like “Simple Lightbox” or “Lightbox plus
   Colorbox”.

 * not sure either of those would work. I am after a slideshow that pauses when 
   you mouseover. NextGen is great as offers different galleies on different pages
   but need some sort of plugin to pause the show on mouseover. Any ideas?

 * Those lightbox plugins can add-ons to NextGen.
