I have been experimenting with ProShow tho' i am impressed with some of the results i am not satisfied with it overall. If my picts are not "letter perfect" proshow makes a vcd that bleaches some of the picts terribly and pixelation is quite evident -- yet the same picts in a p2e show do not show these probs when put on the tv/vcr/tape via my AverMedia box that is my observation in my testing i used picts from http://www.mplonsky.com/photo/article.htm they are "letter perfect" and showed no degradation, but the average person would have to have everything going for him/her to produce picts with no flaws in exposure etc. I'm likely doing something wrong ken

works ok on my dirty xp home -- 1.3 hz -- 256 system ken

Harold's remark jogged me -- have you tried opening the disk in the burner drive or in somebody else's system and re markers for for cd's see http://www.sanfordcorp.com/sanford/consume..._A&_DAV=Sharpie ken

#1 is the one to hang ken

Linda, try copy and paste from cd to hard drive and then try to open them is the disk a cd-r or a cd-rw is your system win98 or xp a cd-rw disk formatted on a win 98 system is very touchy if you try to access it on on xp system -- the recommended thing is to copy all data to your hard drive, and reformat the cd-rw with xp ken

Jim the bumble bee show ran perfect on my xp home pIII 1.3hz 256 ram system -- the music stopped just as it landed on flower and show stopped. as i said previously in http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums//index...ct=ST&f=2&t=467 twas worth the hold up at the border ken

my answer to this thread http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums//index...ct=ST&f=2&t=496 applies here as well ken

using television as the key word will get you +- 6 hits > 30 days but one way to do it is to get an interface to go between computor and monitor similar to ]http://www.aver.com/products/ http://www.aver.com/products/comptv.shtml http://www.aver.com/products/comptv_AVerKe...Key500pro.shtml picture quality may not be as good as on the monitor but you are just proofing to the customer Mine is a 1996 model and it does not near the features they have today but fits my needs -- having the remote control gives you the option of positioning etc. Another option is to get a TV out graphics board for your computer -- my ATI ALLINWONDER board does not have a remote and the picture size on the tv is not the same size as with the AVerKey you might write to jslugman@alaska.com http://www.jamesandjill.com/index.html and ask Jim what he uses to make his videos ken

Jim real glad they finally let you across the border to get to the Bill's Cottage -- your show was worth the delay -- pretty slick ken

able to get there at 23:30 est -- maybe the border is closed to anyone from Ottawa ken

Robert, i have just set up a folder witth sc's to member's sites, specific threads etc -- i started this a while back using the "cottage" as the start point and then have made sub folders inside with folders for specific members and just now one for specific threads -- have placed it in the Favourites folder with a specific s/c on the desk top c/w with a custom icon of Bill's "cottage" -- now i can send a s/c to a thread to the desktop -- rename it for the thread and put it to the cottage folder/and the winsoft thread folder. Sounds like a lot of work but it works. will send you the cottage icon if you wish ken
