Hi, as always it is good to show the code of your existing approach.

Some tips to help you: use 'ui\_control' to control the Dashboard. It is possible to have images in a folder, a timer that activates 'ui\_control' and tells it to go get a different image and display it on the Dashboard.

Cheers,

Paul
