i am trying to select a picture folder to display in the slideshow gadget but
it is not working. the folder is not being accepted in the options of the
gadget. what do i do?
 
In the gadget, when you click on the wrench icon, it brings up a browse
window...
To the right is a "..." icon that you can then browse folders with,,,
can you get that far?

If yes then are you getting to a point where you cannot browse to the folder?
Is it greyed out or is there an error message?
Please give a step by step of what is not happening...

i am going upto the step of selecting the folder containing the pictures but
after i select the folder it does not appear in the selection and the
pictures are not displayed. its almost as if the gadget is a dud or a dummy
programmed to display the default pictures and nothing else!!

What's the path of the folder, perhaps it doesn't have
access permission.

I'm having the same problem. No matter what folder you pick, the selection
doesn't show up in the folder field. All I get are the smaple pictures.
Also, you can check both of the check boxes but they don't make a difference
to the slideshow. Also, the "Show each picture" and the "Transition between
pictures" fields are blank, the boxes drop down but there's nothing there. I
have uninstalled and reinstalled the gaget but nothing works. I am hoping
there is a way to do a complete uninstall and reinstall of this gadget
because I really enjoyed it when it did work.
