Slideshow Programs

[ppentertainments]

There are more and more dj's now doing photo slideshows as part of their packages. What program do you use for the slideshow. Currently I use either Photoshop or Windows own slideshow.

I also require the program to allow me to run a slideshow on one screen/projector and then add images as people come up with memory cards without disturbing the slideshow.

Preferably simple to use ;)

I think Power Point can do that. I know it can out put on one screen while leaving the other to be used for other things.

I use windows movie maker. I put all the images and messages into it and save it a movie file and it can then be played in media player and on a loop. Works fine for me and the quality is great.

The only problem is, it is difficult to add images as the slideshow is running.

it might be a bit much just for slideshow but i use virtual dj with it just plays all the images in a preset folder i used it at bike club's cristmas party and had bluetooth setup so people could just bluetooth the images to the laptop

To be honest, I don't think people would mind too much if the slideshow stops for like 5 minutes whilst you add new photos to a folder.
I've actually started using Windows own slideshow software in Vista now and it does the trick so I will continue to use that I think.
