Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

It works but has issues. First there is a white border that I could not easily remove. Second on most slide templates the photos are not cleaned after sliding so if the photo is smaller then the one before, parts of the previous image is visible from under the current photo (on the bottom). The height cannot be adjusted so the block just gets out of the view.
