 Currently, all the python scripts assume that image files will be generated and saved in a common folder (/home/admin/images). This was done for expedience when developing this prototype on a MyNode instance.  The plan is to improve these scripts to use a single output folder instead of configuring them uniquely, and to turn this all into a more easily managed service. Eventually, it could become a package/application for the popular node deployments
 
 The [slideshow](./scripts/slideshow.sh) viewer uses the framebuffer imageviewer, which requires root access. I believe this could be gotten around by adding whatever user would be running it to the `video` group.
