software to play images on a burnt cd

[thecenter]

hi all !

I need to know how can I make a cd with an interface of watching
pictures that are burnt on the cd.

which means - they don't have to have on their computers any software
like ac-dsee or infranview or anything else.

when they insert the cd - the software on the cd intself opens and enables them to watch the pictures, in which order they want.

it's kind of like you get from a photo-store.

anyone ??

automatic playing of all pictures in the selected directory and its subdirectories, full range of options and command
line support as well as very simple shortcut keys, quickly accessed tips, customized background color
. PhotoPlayer includes an easy to use, integrated autorun.inf creator that allows you to create photo CDs that
start automatically when they are inserted. All you need to do is create your autorun.inf from within the program
and include it and the photoplay.exe on the CD. The viewer will see all images displayed in the PhotoPlayer
, using the custom options, you specified. PhotoPlayer will play pictures of JPEG, BITMAP, Windows Meta and GIF formats.
