You're just one hell of a guy, Aardvark. I think you should be elected to some position of honor.

Yeah, thanks to Aardvark, Intervideo does the trick. It's lightweight, yet flexible enough to mix pictures/transitions/music nicely.

A couple of observations:

· You're up and running in 60 seconds
· Pictures should already be refined
· Transition options are numerous
· Music timeline management a bit clunky
· Burning to DVD is a snap

Butch dyke lesbian? Didn't he QB the 49ers for a few years?

Exactly! And I really get frustrated when I run out of staplers! (or pigeons, for that matter...)

Thanks Vitriola.

Around here people log in when they post or PEOPLE DIE! I enjoy your Marches.

Looking for a recommendation or two for software that will allow digital pictures to be organized in a slide show. This software will then allow me to add music and captions as I see fit, ultimately burning the end result to a DVD.

Also, confidential to whoever it is who keeps writing e-mails to Knuckles the Clown through the "send an e-mail" function on this BBS: it's not working. Knuckles posted a fake Yahoo e-mail address to register with. Meanwhile there are 30 bounce messages directed back to the JC admin account which I use to troll 49er fans and butch dyke lesbians. :(

I'm not looking for Recumbent Cycling, CLown man. Please try to stay on topic.

Thank you.

Thanks. I have InterVideo and it seems pretty straight forward. But, the more I think about, maybe if it's complicated and harder to use, it will, uhm, be easier for me to use...

I scanned all my mom's photos (everything in the big cardboard box!) then went thru them with Intervideo something or other and made up slideshows of the places she went and put music to them. Instant Christmas gift! (took me a shitload of hours to figger out what the program wanted and another shitload to get the hang of using it)

The end result was really great. Backed up all the photos on the DVD for me too, in a separate folder so they won't get lost. Some kind of slideshow program.IF I get really excited I'll dig up the name for you, if you want

"Pictures To DVD" Is simplistic, "DVD X SHOW" is excellent, because if your pictures are higher than the resolution of your tv (of course they are) you can tell it to pan and scale around the screen. To do things your wife wants to do, basically.

I want to say Powerpoint, but that seems too easy.

Willing to sacrifice some bells & whistles for ease of use since wife wants to, uhm, help.

Thanks,
