The older freeware version of UPresent (now shareware) is wonderful.

Re: How to make a slide show?

2002-11-22 Thread Travis Glaab 
I use my laptop to present images using icab in kiosk mode, and writing a
simple webpage to scroll through the images.  Most of the html and
JavaScript necessary to make it work is available online.

You have much more control over the presentation(background, color,
captions, animations)  It can be timed, or activated by a mouse click.

 You might want to try "iView Multimedia". It allows you to use video, 
photos and even 3D graphics in whatever order and duration you choose.

Thank you Drew!  It's downloaded and works (these pictures look fabulous),
and will doubtless be useful for various other things besides. (The
requested postcard will go out in today's mail.)  And obviously the site you
recommended has lots more going for it too.

With an abundance of gratitude,

I've used both JPEGView and Jade with good results using OS 8.1 and 8.6.
Both are easily found with a Google-Mac search.  I seem to recall that they
are both at the pure-mac archive:  http://www.pure-mac.com/index.html

Cheers,
Rick

Gif converter has a very nice slide show tool. It allows a variable 
amount of time, change on a mouse click, etc. .

If Gif Converter can't open it, it can't be opened ...

Hi Victoria.Its Victoria.

Have you tried  iview media i use it on my 3400 it has a slide  show
facility and you can also put files and pages of text to mix in with the
pic's in a simple drag n drop  procedure (very easy to use).

Victoria.

Re: How to make a slide show?

2002-11-22 Thread Andrew L. Kershaw 
Victoria,

You might try JPEGView...  JPEGView scales images nicely (using dithering and 
anti-aliasing to avoid pixel jaggies, I guess), allows you to present a slide show 
with no interface visible and a jet-black border, expanding your pictures to the 
fullest dimension without cropping.

It has trouble with newer JPEG pictures if you use the built-in JPEG library, but 
fortunately the preferences give you the option of using QuickTime to decode JPEG 
files, so as long as you have a relatively recent version of QuickTime, you should be 
able to display just about any JPEG file you can find.

JPEGView also does PICT format and GIF, but it handles JPEGs best.

You can get it here:


I hope that helps,
Drew
