Looks quite primitive and ugly to me and all is needed is a little scripting to achieve better results from scratch.
From my first glance, the slides do not appear to be scaleable although they will open in a new window. This could easily be achieved with Flash with modest file sizes.
No thanks

In designing the output created by LecShare one main goal was kept in mind - to make a web site that both able-bodied and disabled people could access equally. LecShare does not create a "disabled" view or a "normal" view. There is only one view that is accessible to all people.
LecShare is designed to XHTML standards and uses CSS for all of the layout of the page. Users and content creators can insert their own style sheets into the web site to completely customize the way the web site looks to meet their own needs.
Flash modules can create problems with trying to make something fully accessible. There are techniques for maximizing the accessibility of Flash, but it is difficult to ensure 100% accessibility. That is why XHTML and CSS were chosen as the formats for LecShare's output. (DHTML and Javascript were also ruled out for accessibility reasons)
While LecShare does not offer Flash output, LecShare offers many features that are not present in any other program like it on the market.
