Need help with Lovelace: Slideshow Card

Configuration
1

Hello, im new with Hassio, trying to following this guide Lovelace Slideshow Card [not allowd to link becasue im new user, weird rule] to get a slideshow on my dashboard. But doing something wrong but i dont know what.

  1. Create a folder in your config directory named custom_components Check
  2. Create a folder in your custom_components named sensor Check
  3. Copy the folder.py into the sensor folder Check
  4. Add the folder sensor to your configuration.yaml file Check?
    This is what my config file looks like, i think its okey,

Configure a default setup of Home Assistant (frontend, api, etc)

Uncomment this if you are using SSL/TLS, running in Docker container, etc.

If you are referring to this card https://github.com/zsarnett/slideshow-card, it is achieved project and it maybe the reason why it is having the error. Maybe you can try the forked version which has been updated. https://github.com/igloo15/slideshow-card. But i cant guarantee this also

been trying that one aswell, same error.
just want some picture rolling on my dashboard, any other ideas?

If you are looking for rolling constant images, you can create a gif and display it in lovelace using picture card.
