Re: X where image should be

Your AutoViewer gallery.xml file end with a </simpleviewergallery> tag rather than the expected </gallery> tag.
The <url>s in the gallery file are looking for the images in a folder called 'images' and they don't seem to be there.
eg. <url>images/wide.jpg</url> in gallery.xml is looking for the file http://www.notizio.com/images/wide.jpg.
(This should really be in the AutoViewer section.)

Re: X where image should be

I'd also remove the following code from the xml file.

<image>
<url>autoviewer/images/Thumbs.db</url>
<caption/>
<width/>
<height/>
</image>

Thumbs.db is not an image, rather a file Windows uses to cache thumbnails.
This is likely to be the reason why your slide show does not progress past the second image.
