Title: Flash slideshow
Post by: theolodian on 29 November 2006, 12:41:13

What's the easiest free way to create a flash-style slideshow?  The kind that can be uploaded to photobucket, etc.  I have iLife and Photoshop Elements, but don't have any intention of buying Flash, etc.

try FlashPaper.

Not sure if it works in powerpoint, but works well in word, create a stanard MS Word document, then you can just "Print" it to flashpaper, it creates a swf file.

Not sure how well it does presentations though.

Maybe I wasn't clear enough, or maybe you guys are talking way over my head.  I want to upload one file to photobucket like it's a piccie, and have that cycle through a series of photos like a slideshow.  What I was hoping to accomplish is a poor-man's dvd for the guide section, show a photo sequence of how to do certain repairs.

tunnie, I looked at flashpaper.  Neat program.  It may do what I want, but not free  :P

get an MSN passport account. The profile setup on that thing allows you to upload albums, and uses a built in picture slideshow.
