Panorama pics display / "Ken Burns" effect

I just discovered Soloslides and it is working mostly really nicely on my old iPad.

One thing that I'd like to see is better display for panorama pictures, that I take a lot to capture the whole scene.

Apple's slideshow can display panoramas by scaling them to fit the height of the display and then panning them slowly. Not sure if the pan direction is always fixed, would be nice to have it randomized.

Over the years i have also appreciated Ken Burns effect as a nicer method than zoom to fill for pics that don't match the display orientation.

Another +1 for the Ken Burns effect please!

Static photos are nice but I'd love this effect added so the photos have a bit more personality.

Thanks,
James
