To show a slide show of images from your sdcard have a look at http://codinglookseasy.blogspot.in/2012/08/image-slide-show.html. Hope this helps you.

Answer 2

Get the image paths into the sdcard and pass it to the gallery. You can follow this link for few more information http://raivoratsep.com/114/android-gallery-tutorial-working-example/

suppose you get the path name as

String pathName = "/sdcard/images/abc.jpg"; 

You can set the image to the image view as

Drawable d = Drawable.createFromPath(pathName);

hope this may help you

try creating another layout-land folder with the same xml file as in the layout folder. This will be used as the layout when the mobile is in the landscape mode. And to prevent crashing try to use

System.gc(); 

in the ondestroy() And i didnt find any difficulty by adding new images. They work fine for me.
