I was thinking of doing some slideshows with my pics, anyone knows a FREE app (I don't have ANY money right now, sigh) which I can use? If it has the possibility of adding music it would be just wonderful... Thanx in advance. Stefano

Unfortunately, I don't remember exactly how at the moment, and I'm leaving tomorrow morning for Barcelona and will be back next Saturday. But it's a silly little trick with redirect and refresh. Only, every page would have a different background music. :-/ Apparently something like this: http://www.anand76.ind.in/freeware4.html But take a good look at this: http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file_description/0,fid,15302,00.asp It's apparently what you need.

Windows Movie Maker did a great job for me. MD

iPhoto and iMovie work great, for making slideshows, picture galleries, and so on.

If your compy came with PowerPoint you can make a self running slide show really easily. Not very web optimized though if that is what you're after

INFRANVIEW is a very good pic/file organiser that will catalogue, batch-rename,etc and has a great slideshow function that will create a self-running .exe When created, a 'slideshow'.exe just needs a click to fire up a full-screen slideshow. Sorry, I don't have the address. The Bryster
