Slideshows are a good way of displaying your photos, and this software lets you create slideshows in seconds.

Start with the general settings, such as the size at which to display the images, the frame rate and the background colour, then add the effect(s) you wish to use. Annoyingly the effects are simply labelled 'effect 1' to 'effect 10' which doesn't really tell you what they do.

You can then add an audio file if you wish, in either WAV or MP3 format.

Finally you need to select the images to use in the slideshow, which can be in any of the following formats: JPG, GIF, PNG or BMP. You can, apparently, load certain images into a new window, but as this demo doesn't let you preview or save any slideshows we were unable to see how this worked.

As the slideshow is in Flash format, it's possible to display the slideshow on a web page, import it into other programs such as PowerPoint, or simply distribute 'as is' to anyone with Flash Player installed.
