When did Idaho get a beach?

Looks like Seaside, OR to me.

An astute observation.

We were in Oregon last summer and went to Seaside a couple of times and that aquarium looked very familiar.

But the ability to put captions on the slides as the slideshow is created sounds like a good idea, also. (Desperate attempt to get back on topic.)

I'm curious. How will this feature be better than using PhotoStory 3 from Microsoft?

If you want to make a change in a Photo Slides slide show, you just go in with SSB and change it.

With PhotoStory 3, you would need to bring the project back up, make the change and recreate the WMV file.

With Photo Slides you could also make a manually advancing slide show, which isn't possible with PhotoStory 3.

OTOH, with PhotoStory 3, you can put pan/zoom effect on each photo and make a much better looking presentation, IMHO.

But it's a WMV, not a slide show, so unless you hit the pause button, it keeps going, whether the presentor is done with a picture or not.

If Photo Slides has the same or better pan and zoom I might be able to use it exclusively. SSP should have better captioning as Photo Story's captions move with the picture. In the past tf there were just a few slides I would use SSB if there were a lot (100+ slides) I have used PhotoStory mostly because the slide import function and pan and zoom.

SSP would really have to crank up their Pan/Zoom functionality to get it on par with what's available in PhotoStory.

And Photo Slides would have to put slides in the background with Pan/Zoom, rather than as a foreground object.

For those who don't know what we are talking about, PhotoStory 3 is a free download from Microsoft that will let you create a video from a bunch of pictures.
