Hi Juliana, That would be an interesting approach! Please do check if they would be interested. Did you do something like this before (with so many different images, we'd be talking about a huge storage capacity - much more than a few banners/photos on repeat... so I'd be curious if their soft/hardware could handle it.
Nemo: I think we'd be talking about all WLM 2016 photos, so that would be more around 200-300k photos (I hope), and at the earliest in November/December. Any other people willing to work on this follow-up project?
