Taking the idea from some of Samsung's "The Frame TV" I spent a day or so creating a nice digital art frame for my tokenized art collection using Godot and help from the @nftshowroom team. As you can see from the short gif the application smoothly cycles through your art collection and allows you to configure it to your liking.
Auto Mat:
The interface takes into account the size and shape of the image adding a mat to each image. If the image is smaller than the default resolution the image will be given a second border as seen in the screenshots below.

Configurable Options
Along with the obvious options such as selecting the collection you want to display you can also change:
- Whether the display shows your Collection (Stuff you bought.)
- Whether the display shows your Gallery (Stuff you created.)
- The timeout between images.
- Whether should show NSFW art.
- Whether or not it should be full-screen.

Road Map
Unlike a lot of my other projects this one serves its purpose already and the roadmap is really more of a possible future for the project IF there is demand for it.
- Ability to detect and use higher resolution versions of the art unlocked by the purchase
- Ability to show animated art.
- Add a 3 second pause to show the artists message included with the piece before display.
- Some sort of authentication to verify you are the owner of the collection/Gallery.
- Ability to show random curated works which sends a tip to the artist every time the art is displayed.
- Background ambient music.
- New frames and mats.
- Artist controlled options?
Anyway, what do you guys think? Might be worth getting a raspberry pi or NUC to plug into your TV, no? Let me know what you think in the comments below!
