More images in a single output
I think that many of us would like to share some photos through Seadragon.
If we have 10 online photos, then we have to click 10 times. It's so inconvenient.

Inappropriate?Yep, I agree. If it isn't possible to open deep zoom collections in Seadragon Ajax anytime soon (ever?), I'd enjoy seeing deep zoom collections be generated from a group of images and be displayed in the same manner as your Seadragon Ajax Gallery.
With the generation of deep zoom collections, the option to generate either a Seadragon Ajax embed or a Seadragon Silverlight embed would be fantastic.
Having an option to generate a Seadragon Silverlight slideshow would be pretty cool as well. I'd absolutely love to see Seadragon let me log into my flickr/webshots/smugmug account (or other photo service sites) to convert an entire album to a Seadragon experience.

You are spot on, my good sir. Btw, don't rule out collections support in Seajax just yet. Here's a secret: it exists. ;) -
Way to tease your fans, Sir. :) I hope you get your official support to finish baking it for sure. -
Inappropriate?Oh... wait... it is Seadragon Silverlight on those computers that already have Silverlight... Well, cool.
I still think that the thumbnails below the viewer for groups of photos would be the way to handle DZCs when forced to use Seadragon Ajax. -
To me, offering two significantly different experiences between Seajax (gallery with thumbnails) and Silverlight (collection, all inside the viewer at the same time) is unattractive, even dangerous, because someone who makes/embeds something of theirs may not be aware that the presentation can be different for some/many of *their* users.
That's why I'm really pushing internally for official collections support in Seajax, so that we can have a nice, unified experience for Seadragon.com. But what I'm afraid might be more realistic is that we ship collections support in *just* Silverlight and say "Install Silverlight to see this" if a user doesn't have it -- yuck. Hopefully I win out on this one. =P -
Em... yes if collections in Seajax is possible... bring it on! -
Inappropriate?Definitely considering this. Can I ask how you would use it? I.e. what would you point Seadragon.com to in order to build this collection of your images?

Inappropriate?I think the simplest concept would be a directory of images on my own server... just hand Seadragon the directory and let it have at them. To be honest, I'd rather just use Deep Zoom Composer for that particular scenario being that all of the above is under my control (i.e. my images, my server, etc.) (Does Deep Zoom Composer support outputting the same dual Seadragon viewer that the site does? I need to play with the latest release today and find out.)
I suppose I was thinking more of something that would serve general users on the net such as: "Generate a Seadragon viewer for your flickr album!" and the like. That sort of thing would definitely require seadragon.com to understand the link syntax of flickr or be using its API in order to use only the highest resolution versions of those photos for conversion, but the sheer ease for the end user seems like it would be very popular.
