Flash slide show with music

Hello,

I have a huge set of pictures from a recent vacation which I would like
to creat a slide show. Several tools that I have explored were
Powerpoint and Windows Movie maker. There are limitation with
Powerpoint with music. The Windows Movie maker create a file about 9+
GB file without sound.

This is what I would really like to do.
Create a slide show according to the timeline.
Add different music at different stages of the slide show.

Which tools are available to create a good slide show presentation?

Can Flash files create a full screen slide shows? Can I add
titles/comments to Flash slide shows?

Thank you in advance for any help and advice.

Regards,

NJ

Check out Photo Story 3 for Windows instead of Windows Movie Maker
since you're using stills. Title, backgrounds, and music can be
included.

Check out Papa John's site on PS3. www.papajohn.org

There's a link there on the left about PS3. Best source on the web
for tips on anything to do with MM or PS3.

Proshow Gold is one that people here seem to like. I've been playing
with Sony Vegas but that's more like MovieMaker, huge files... but I've
got some video clips also. Proshow might even handle some video clips,
I'm not sure. Definitely it is a neat trick to zoom into and pan across
high res stills.

titles/comments to Flash slide shows?

Thank you for replying. I downloaded Photo Story 3 and tested it out.
It is very simple but has a limitation of 300 pictures only. The output
file is also limited to WMV file.

Thank you for replying. I am downloading ProShow Gold and will try it out.

My other question is can Flash movies be created for full screen at good
resolution?

THank you once again.

I don't know, check it out & report back :-) It makes sense that this
should work since I assume this approach just zooms & pans the original
jpeg rather than making 30 individual frames per second.

I use slideshow pro, but it only allows music for each 'slide show'.
You can go into flash and toggle some code so that you have a main
display page for all of your galleries.

Its xml backed so you can open it in notepad and add more images and
add in information.
