Instant Slide Show

Description: Just throw this file into a directory of images, change the name of the file if you wish, and when you link to it, it creates an instant slide show with the images present in the directory! You can also adjust the code to look through any directory you choose for images. It’s also my first code post ever, so go easy on me 😉
