the last 5 photo bit is tough. for large albums, that requires going through them all (even w/ a cache file, it has to be rebuilt), and it can take several minutes with several thousand photos....not sure about the practicality of it. yes it can be done, but i don't know if it's a good idea to actually do it.
random/hourly/daily 5 wouldn't be too difficult, might just be able to put an iterator in the current code (for i=0;i<5;i++) kinda thing to call the appropriate functions 5 times... |
