All,
Well, the title says it all, have you ever wanted to get that Itunes style cover flow effect for stills to work in FCP/FCE/Motion.
Well now you can and you can do it for free!
I've written a little plugin called CoverFlux that takes up to 25 images and displays them in the 'fan carousel' exactly like iTunes or the Leopard finder. and yes, it is completely free, so please use it to make money/have fun or just produce some stunning graphics.

David,
It is only stills at the moment, sorry :(
A video version might come in the future but I'd have to work out all the timings of when to roll the clips etc. Not impossible though.

looked more closely at parameters, and found that you can turn off black background, making it able to put anything you want back there. Great feature!
