Hello and thank you in advance,
We are helping with a booth at our county fair, have done this 2 years now. I want to add a slideshow of pictures on a lap top PC but have no prior experience with setting this up. Ideally I'd like to choose the pics, the order they are in, and perhaps have a few lines of text imposed on the photo. Then have it either flip through the photos with time delay or have it keyboard controlled to go faster. Does anyone have any ideas on how to set this up and does anyone have great photos that I just have to share? I'd also like to capture screen shots of photos online such as beesource main webpage.

MS Office has PPS that would work great for you as it can be speed up or down.
