Ave the program is being updated all the time -- "he who hesitates is lost " ken

Ave cant help you as to the exact procedure but i think from what i have read the first time you try to use Vb or the extras you are going to be asked to apply the Key for VB another tip once you have registered it get stu's utility http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10273&st=0&p=66807&fromsearch=1entry66807 ken

make sure you save all documentation and details as well as the key -- to a separate flash drive, cd etc see http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12201&pid=79400&st=40entry79400 ken

from my signature go to http://www.wnsoft.com/download.htm http://www.wnsoft.com/apr/ "buy now" button i guess:rolleyes: ken

you will likely have to pay - video builder and all the extra features subscription is only good for 2 years - if you update you will lose vb and the extra features ken

Andrew full background screen - ran smooth as silk- sharp picts showing lots of detail - music got me singing to myself would have liked to see more engine room and controls:( great show ken

LENNART IF I REMEMBER RIGHT THERE WERE A FEW SHOWS LIKE THIS think they were quite popular at the time:rolleyes: ken

George I would have liked larger picts neat format tho' ken

IMHO turning off manual control is a big mistake I want to look at the author's picts unless there is speech involved sound is of little importance or transitions i am interested the style of the photographer ! Andrew you have a good thing going don't mess with sucess ken

HAVE A LOOK AT THE WHOLE THREAD http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8145&pid=51340&st=0entry51340 Lin has a tutorial and end of thread ken

it has manual controls I think all the book shows put up recently all do In the case of Ron's, he literally wrote a page describing each picture:unsure: ken

Andrew great collection - great exposure and colours- i know what low light shooting is all about full screen top and horizontal had headset wide open - quickly turned them down ken

Paul amazing what was built with literally no powertools -- great documentation and music ken

Davy great collection and well composed ken

Pict TO Exe will make a random slide show the link to the help file is below ken

STU IMHO i think the whole idea would help people putting their show together -- I have always enabled the nav bar functions since 3.4 to facilitate things - Lets hope Igor will consider this one ken

Stu what would really be neat would be when you hit preview you would get a split screen one side showing the whiteboard - and advancing as the slides changed the other showing the show ken

GEORGE when you get this done you will be able to rename it piece de resistance - the outstanding item (the prize piece or main exhibit) in a collection http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi%C3%A8ce_de_r%C3%A9sistance forget who it was but he must have had +- 12 different versions -- mostly due to spelling mistakes so hang in there ken

sorry far too slow now ken

Mary depends on the intended use - Bill's site has a time limit of 30 days if he enforces it - mediafire does not as a rule i have no problem with medaifire ken

FROM STU'S ENTRY http://www.picturestoexe.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12321 However ... it would be nice if the Navigation Bar did include a Last Slide button to compliment its Home Slide (first slide) button to better navigate in some particular slideshow needs. KEN'S COMMENT it would also be useful to be able to go to specific slides via a roll down arrow window ken

George make the pte in several forms and see which looks best -- save as under different names to differentiate you have most of the work done then post the best - in your eyes ken

copy and paste the exe out of your mailer to the desktop and then try it ken

George seems cramped in the format you chose -- you are from the States so you are familiar with Montana's "big sky country" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montana 'tho your sky is not a Montana sky you should enhance it to make it "big sky" by filling the screen transitions could also be slowed down ken

For the Canadian newsmagazine show, see 16:9 (TV series).Five common aspect ratiosThe aspect ratio of an image is the ratio of the width of the image to its height, expressed as two numbers separated by a colon. That is, for an x:y aspect ratio, no matter how big or small the image is, if the width is divided into x units of equal length and the height is measured using this same length unit, the height will be measured to be y units. For example, consider a group of images, all with an aspect ratio of 16:9. One image is 16 inches wide and 9 inches high. Another image is 16 centimeters wide and 9 centimeters high. A third is 8 yards wide and 4.5 yards high. Aspect ratios are mathematically expressed as x:y (pronounced "x-to-y") and x×y (pronounced "x-by-y"), with the latter particularly used for pixel dimensions, such as 640×480. Cinematographic aspect ratios are usually denoted as a (rounded) decimal multiple of width vs unit height, whilst photographic and videographic aspect ratios are usually defined and denoted by whole number ratios of width to height. In digital images there is a subtle distinction between the Display Aspect Ratio (the image as displayed) and the Storage Aspect Ratio (the ratio of pixel dimensions); see distinctions, below. The most common aspect ratios used today in the presentation of films in movie theaters are 1.85:1 and 2.39:1.[1] Two common videographic aspect ratios are 4:3 (1.33:1), universal for standard-definition video formats, and 16:9 (1.78:1), universal to high-definition television and European digital television. Other cinema and video aspect ratios exist, but are used infrequently. As of 2010[update], nominally 21:9 (2.33) aspect TVs have been introduced by Philips and Vizio (the latter using an LCD from AU Optronics) as "cinema" displays, though the resolution is more precisely 2560×1080 = 2.37, and the aspect ratio is not standardized in HDTV. In still camera photography, the most common aspect ratios are 4:3, 3:2, and more recently being found in consumer cameras 16:9[2]. Other aspect ratios, such as 5:4, 6:7, and 1:1 (square format), are used in photography as well, particularly in medium format and large format. With television, DVD and Blu-ray, converting formats of unequal ratios is achieved by either: enlarging the original image (by the same factor in both directions) to fill the receiving format's display area and cutting off any excess picture information (zooming and cropping), by adding horizontal mattes (letterboxing) or vertical mattes (pillarboxing) to retain the original format's aspect ratio, or (for TV and DVD) by stretching (hence distorting) the image to fill the receiving format's ratio, by scaling by different factors in both directions, possibly scaling by a different factor in the center and at the edges (as in Wide Zoom mode).
