I'm all for creating slideshows from images and i do it regularly using another package.

But this got me wondering.........

why have you posted instructions for a program (that requires to be purchased) that no one asked for?

The cynic in me thinks this is a sales pitch. If it's not then forgive me and I aplogise.
But I'd imagine that any program that is worth its salt would have an online help file that would tell you what you've done here. I'd also assume that since the program requires to be purchased and seems to offer online help via ther site there would be no need to publish instructions as detailed above.

Just wondering what prompted this detailed post (that i don't doubt took a long to time to put together) when it wasn't requested?
