I have a all in one printer( hp photosmart 3180 ) I scan a lot of old photos and put them in a folder on my desk top. Now I want to transfer them to a slide show on a cd and add some music if possible. Ant Ideas on how I can go about this? Also want to put them in a certain order. Thank you for what ever help you can give me
David :thumbsup:

Hey Ddude58 -

You might want to check that again.

I've got Photo Story 3 and I don't see where there is any "5 picture" limit.

I've done at least one "story" with 35 images in it.

I know you think you understand what you thought I said,
but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant!

A word of advice. Save each picture---in addition to putting it in a slideshow---as a separate file and save these to a different disk. Old pictures, especially personal ones, are too precious to loose or "lock up" in a particular slideshow software.
Cheers,
John
