Doesn't display thumbnail when large number of pictures in the slideshow

I guess you might try increasing the width of the following CSS rule:

.slideshow-thumbnails ul {
    ...
    width: 10000px;
}

However, the Slideshow rapidly losses it's usability with an excessive number 
of thumbnails - it makes it 
difficult to pan and find the slide you are interested in, plus adds a lot of 
overhead to the script. I would 
recommend running the slideshow without thumbnails, or breaking them up into 
smaller, grouped shows - 
accessible from an external menu - that loads each group into the Slideshow 
player as desired. Something like 
what's on the demo page.

I am not able to duplicate this. Using an image array of 255 images, I only had 
to
increase the thumbnails list as mentioned above:   

.slideshow-thumbnails ul { width: 20000px; } 

Everything continued to work fine.

Why do we have to manually control the width of an element? The slideshow 
should figure it out by itself. There 
are multiple complaints for this bug and you keep pointing at manually setting 
the width.

And if one increases the width to a specific size, will the list resize if I 
only have 10 images?

I guess the reason is, if the Slideshow were to figure it out by itself it 
would have
to assume a single row. There may be cases where the designer may want two or 
more
rows of thumbnails (or columns in the case of vertical thumbnails). That was the
reason why I did not originally calculate this value - to give more control to 
the
designers. I suppose I could assume the number of rows based on the height 
given to
the element in the stylesheet (or number of columns based on the width). I will 
look
into this.
