Program to run slide show for clients

Postby redbluegreen on Fri May 04, 2007 4:32 pm

Hi I have just got a gig shooting some sport and the president of the club wants me to do a slide show for some of the sponsors. Can you please advise what you use. I will probably have about 400 images by season end. :? Thanks

The screen saver in Windows XP does a pretty good slide show.

Just dump all the images in a directory and point the "slideshow" screen saver to that directory.

Easy :lol:

When I shoot weddings I do slideshows at the reception and I use My Slideshow Gold, it's really easy to use especially if you need to get a show together quickly.

ProShowGold is another option.

hi there, for an executable file (.exe), pictures to exe is good, and for a DVD show, I use Ulesd's CD & DVD Picture Show. I'm happy

If you just want a quick and cheap solution...Microsoft Powerpoint will do the job quite well. Proshow Gold is a Rolls Royce program and costs accordingly.
