First of all, you'd have some competition: Mediachance's Multimedia Builder sounds similar, if (a bit) more expensive and more complex: http://mmb.mediachance.com/index.html. There are a number of tools out there that will do Flash animation. Almost none of them are as expensive or hard to use as Flash itself. Swish is one such program and their Swish Photo Album is arguably in the same category price-wise and feature wise. Also keep in mind that distributing EXE files is a bit of a no-no in the Internet world. It's considred a dangerous activity. And of course, EXEs will not be X-platform, whereas Flash will. (Which is probably OK, since we all know that nobody uses Poser on the MAC anymore ;-D) There are actually a lot of utilities out there that can generate stand-alone EXEs of pictures to create a slideshow. My favorite free picture viewer, IrfanView can do this, and a whole lot more. With the right feature set and a lot of heavily targetted marketing, you might make a dent in a market as small as the Poser community. But it's hardly a given. You might want to do some more research before investing a lot of your time in this idea. At the very least, you should compare the features of your app to the features of other apps (both freeware and shareware) that can accomplish the same goal.
