Deslideshowification is a word, right?

October 1, 2013 9:30 AM

Somewhere on Metafilter -- I think it was in an AskMe answer, but it might have been a MeFi comment on some horribly long slideshow -- someone linked to a plug-in or bookmarklet that would deslideshowify web slideshows and show them on a single page instead. But I can't find it again, because 'slideshow' occurs in the search results about 160 kabillion times. Does anyone remember this and can you help me find it?

Deslide.

Thanks!

Alas, it doesn't work on the slideshow I want to de-slideshowify, but at least I can bookmark it for later.

It's definitely not universally applicable, but I use it on occasion.

I had that on my bookmarks bar for quite a while, but it didn't work with sites I was looking at often enough that I threw it off to recover the real estate. I wish there was something that worked all over, though, because the crappy-annoying-slideshow-format-for-no-reason thing is dire and tragic and everywhere.

Un-slide-ify?

Sounds good, but I've never seen it to work as advertised.
