While it is not the page curl, it is very effective. Well done.

Hello Ghuyla Igor did not reply with the tutorial; another forum member did? Did I get this wrong? "Let's be pragmatic" to quote you. You have raised your concerns, several times about this and other matters. The developer (Igor) has responded with what seems to be valid coding/development reasons. I am not aware of any other application that has a forum led by the developer. For me, if the application does not meet my requirements, I would be looking for alternative practical solution or maybe develop your own application that suits your needs? In this instance the application certainly suits my needs, I appreciate the feedback from the developer and other forum members, even though I may not always agree with it, I appreciate and respect the POV of others. Cheers Mark

Great demonstration Av's, well done. Appreciate you sharing. Thanks Mark

Thanks, knew I must have been doing something incorrectly. Activated and will look at in more detail next time.

Interested to hear how people are using the Beta version. Last night I tried to make an AV to test some new features. The finished show had a watermark (which is fine) but meant the show I was going to share was not practical. Needless to say no beta testing as such. I was able to edit the AV using a copy of V11 that I have so the editing was not lost. Just trying to understand the test workflow of all the people using the new features? Thanks Mark

Welcome to the Ballina Players’ delightful production of Anne of Green Gables — a timeless story that has captured hearts for generations. Set in the picturesque community of Avonlea, this beloved tale follows the spirited and imaginative Anne Shirley as she finds a home, friendship, and a sense of belonging she’s always dreamed of. Under the direction of Jacquie McCalman, the Ballina Players bring Lucy Maud Montgomery’s classic to life with warmth, humour, and a touch of old-fashioned charm. From heartfelt performances to beautiful staging, this production celebrates the power of imagination, resilience, and the magic of finding family in unexpected places. So sit back, relax, and enjoy a glimpse behind the scenes of the Understudy Dress Rehearsal of this wonderful community production of Anne of Green Gables.

Thank you, the best time is the rising tide in the morning. The birds are busy preening and feeding and a slow, gradual creep up allows me to get closer. If you move slowly, the larger birds are more accepting but the smaller birds are always more flighty. Cheers Mark

Thanks John, glad you liked it. I probably have a few others from other cities in Europe from the trip. Amsterdam was early. Time and more recent imaging are preventing it from happening. Cheers Mark

When I need to do this, I create it once, then copy and paste to the following slides/images. This saves setting all the parameters each time, and you just have to edit the text. Hope that helps?

Just reading through the posts and you can add your own sounds see -

This audiovisual presents Amsterdam through a different spectrum of light, where monochrome infrared images are converted into false colour. Streets, canals, and trees shift from the familiar into the surreal, revealing hidden contrasts and unexpected tones. By translating the invisible into colour, the city is reimagined as a dreamlike landscape, inviting viewers to experience Amsterdam beyond ordinary sight. Mark

A selection of migratory shore birds that visit a local beach near my home from as far away as Siberia. All images taken in around 2 hours on Friday Janaury 9, 2026.

Interesting and I value you leaving a comment, thank you. I tried the "shutter sound" only and without music but did not like this option. It remind me of the old slideshow of the slide cassette changing without music. I also tried different volumes for each track. I guess in the end, my approach of not letting good get in the way of perfect presided and I finalised this project. I appreciate that as an art form, not everybody likes the same thing and it is very subjective. For me, the end result was good, and hence I released it to the world. Thanks for commenting and I appreciate your POV. Ciao Mark

Thanks Bert glad you enjoyed them. I guess the amount of images is the problem, too many shots and too much time to decide what to include and what to leave out. The slideshow above was a selection of the images from 2025 only and I wanted to limit the show length. For me personally, I try to keep the show length to under 5 minutes, probably a carryover from my old slide AV days. Thanks again Mark

No worries. not sure what the problem is but when I click on the image in the reply to Bert, it opens my Flickr Bird Gallery. Not sure where to go to from here. No time to make another slideshow unfortunately. Regards Mark

No problems Jim, horses (or should that be birds) for courses. I would spend more time culling to get to nder 5 minutes before other fell asleeo. I take thousands of images of birds each year - see the link below if you wish to review them at your own pace.

No worries Bert. If you like something slower have a look at my Flickr Gallery where you can review at your own pace. Not as up to date as this, but still a couple hundred photos.

Captured throughout 2025, these images depict birds in their natural environments, shaped by the seasons, light, and their surroundings. Some frames celebrate the poetry of flight, where wings intersect with shifting light, while others rest in quiet observation. Together, they explore the artistic relationship between movement and illumination in the living landscape.

Thanks Igor, I have downloaded and installed it.

Hello Igor, PTE developers, and forum members. Best wishes for a happy and wonderful 2026. Do what you like and if you cannot do that like what you do. Cheers Mark

Hi Jeff Meant to reply earlier but I am now just back in front of my main PC. Music is extremely difficult to select for me as most of my "style" of music has copyright attached and YouTube and other platforms do not allow it ot be shared. I am not a hge music giru so maybe that is why I struggle. There are numerous free music resources, including Eric Matyas It is challenging as often I find that the music I select is not necessarily what others would have chosen. Once I had the idea of selecting music first then making the AV but that did not work either. I have come to the conculsion that some music is better than none so just keep experimenting. Enjoy your AV journey. Mark

Nice work, thanks for sharing.

Hi Thanks for sharing this with Forum members. Here is my version of the template with best wishes for a safe and happy Christmas with a prosperous and peaceful 2026 Mark and Geraldine.

Hello everyone Thanks for commenting and feedback on the previous version of this. I made some changes to the previous version, so if you have 5 minutes to spare, have a look at this version.

Thanks John - appreciate your feedback. I do normally fade the audio but it must have been missed when I swapped it out. The next version does have a fade. Except for about 6 weeks in Europe, most are within a 2-hour drive of where I live. I'm not sure that names of those places would mean anything to most in this group, but I will investigate for the next version to include on images from Europe. The music has changed for the next one. It is different and not necessarily better. Back to editing. Mark
