JTCS - Art Gallery

Journal to Canvas Slideshow (Now renamed to "JTCS - Art Gallery") has received a major overhaul and several big feature updates.

Now with support for Foundry v10!

In addition to big updates to the core features, and major QOL improvements, the biggest new feature is called the "Art Gallery" which allows you to display multiple different images on multiple different "Art Tiles" in the same scene, bound by "Frame Tiles" that keep the Art Tiles scaled within a certain size.

Here is a video demonstration:

Note: While the wooden scene background and overlay art is included as part of the module in a compendium pack, the tabletop "trinket" assets seen in above video are NOT included as part of the module. They are by Joe Neeves (Limonium) on Gumroad.

Thanks to everyone, both users and contributors, for being patient with me as this project has evolved. This module was one of my first forays into the realm of web development, and I've learned so much since its inception, both through schooling and the painstaking but fulfilling process of gradually trying to make my modules better and better.

This update was a huge undertaking for me, but aso an amazing learning experience, and I hope to continue adding improvements as needed.

I hope everyone enjoys!
