What happened to the "donations" button?

I am grateful to everyone who has contributed over the years: localizers, icon designers, bug reporters, and all those who made donations. Unfortunately, circumstances prevent me from actively continuing development of Phoenix Slides in the foreseeable future, and I think it is appropriate to retire the donation button.

If you like Phoenix Slides, and you appreciate the fact this incredible piece of software is available to you for free (I am being very modest here, of course), I encourage you to pay-it-forward, as appropriate to your means and your talents.

You are still welcome to contact me for whatever reason, of course.

What's New

• info bar during slideshow is now hidden by default; showing/hiding of the info bar is now retained when quitting
• universal binary again! the last version inadvertently dropped support for powerpc machines. (although, this will probably be the last version to support anything before 10.6)

Comments

"Phoenix Slides is blazingly fast. With my 1000+ photos, iPhoto smoulders along, but the phoenix burns right though them." --Eugene Liu

Phoenix shows the directory structure perfectly, and having them display full screen one by one or as manual or timed slide shows is just perfect. The ability to play a slide show including subdirectories is just brilliant. Well done, and thank you for a very professional piece of software. --ChrisG_UK, versiontracker

Exactly what I was looking for! A way to browse my photos without importing to iPhoto. I can also scroll through folders in full screen using the mouse buttons. Well done! --steve, versiontracker
