Slideshow Editor
Drop in any photo or video clip, drag the logo, bonus line and button onto it, and the OBS overlay renders exactly what you saw in the editor.
What it is
A slideshow is the rotating panel on your overlay that advertises whatever you want chat to see — the casino you're playing, the bonus code, the leaderboard that's running. Making one look good used to mean commissioning an image, and changing the offer meant commissioning it again.
The editor replaces that. The background is an ordinary photo or a video clip you already have; the offer goes on top as separate pieces — logo, headline, button, your own graphics — that you drag into place and animate.
How it works on a real stream
One renderer, so the preview can't lie
The canvas in the editor and the browser source in OBS are the same component. There is no second renderer to disagree with the first, which is the usual reason a composed graphic shifts when it goes live.
Positions are stored as percentages of the frame and type sizes scale with the frame's width, so a slide composed in a 720-pixel editor canvas holds its proportions at 1920 without re-layout.
The offer stays in one place
Importing from a casino profile pulls the logo, bonus line and button straight from the profile you already maintain, laid out and animated. When the offer changes you re-import rather than editing a copy of the text that lives inside a picture.
Re-importing replaces the imported layers rather than adding a second set, so doing it twice doesn't stack two logos on top of each other.
Leaderboard slides finish before they hand over
A leaderboard slide scrolls the whole board — or the number of places you set — and tells the slideshow when it's done, so the next slide waits instead of cutting the list off mid-scroll.
It holds still for a couple of seconds at each end so the top and the bottom can actually be read, and an announce screen can run first to say what the board is and how to enter.
Slides that are not pictures
Beside plain images a slide can be text, a composed layout of several elements, a leaderboard, or the live jackpot — each rendered from the same data as the rest of the account, so a number on a slide is never a screenshot of last week.
Every slide has its own duration, and the show runs as one browser source in OBS or on your streamer site, so a change in the composer is live everywhere at once.

Questions streamers ask
Do I still need someone to design my slides?
No — that's the point of it. You supply an ordinary photo or a short clip and place the offer on top of it in the editor. Changing the bonus is re-importing your casino profile rather than commissioning a new image.
What can I use as a background?
Images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, SVG) or video (MP4, WebM). Layers placed on top of the background are images, so transparent PNG, WebP, GIF and SVG are what you want for logos, icons and badges.
Will the slide look the same on stream as in the editor?
Yes. The editor and the OBS widget use the same renderer, and every position is a percentage of the frame rather than a pixel offset, so the composition holds at any size the overlay is rendered at.
How does a leaderboard slide know when to move on?
It measures the list and reports back when it has finished scrolling, so the slideshow advances only once every place has actually been on screen. A fixed timer would either cut the board off or leave the last row sitting there.
Do I have to type in the slide dimensions?
No. Choose one of your stream layouts and the editor imports the exact size of the slideshow widget in it. You can still set dimensions by hand if you're building for something else.
What happened to image slides and text slides?
They're gone as separate types, because a media slide does both — a background image with text on it. Existing slides keep working exactly as they are, and each one has a Convert button that carries its text, colours and background across if you want to bring it over.
It comes with everything else
One free account carries the whole toolkit — nothing here is behind a separate plan.
