Thank you so much, Ken, I do appreciate your help. I do wish I had time to learn the newer version as I am sure it is great, but time is very restricted for me right now. I have downloaded the old...have the key....and you have made me very happy Thanks again!

I am trying to make a slideshow for a client and I am getting frustrated with the newest pic2exe version again I am missing the fade to/from the desktop...and I have previously found that this isn't a feature in the new version. I also miss having the option to make the slideshow only a certain percentage of the screen...it now is shown as 'aspect ratio of a slide' and this isn't the same as just reducing each image (whether horizontal or vertical) by a certain percent. And for the life of me, I cannot 'sync' the slideshow to the 2 songs I have as I could previously with just a checkmark in the 'syncronize music and slides, because even though it's checked, my slides end way before the 2nd song is even close to being done. Sorry for complaining, I know those who create this program work extremely hard for us....but I just don't have time to 'refigure' this program out Can someone please tell me where I can download and older more simplified version.....I do miss it a lot I had to reformat my computer a few weeks ago, so I don't have the older version anymore. Thanks for any help!! Janet

Thanks, Al and everyone else for your help. I am sorry to hear the 'desktop' features are gone...I really loved them. Now with the '%' of screen, I am afraid I am more confused. In older versions, if you reduced the '% of screen to show slide images' down from 100% it would reduce the size of the images in the slideshow so that they wouldn't take up the whole screen. In the newest version if I put a smaller number in the '% of the slide to show main images' I can't see any change that has taken place And now I am not really sure as to whether this has the same meaning as they aren't worded exactly the same! I want to be able to show the slideshow so that it is reduced in size and doesn't take up the whole computer screen. I have a way with confusing myself and others sorry! Thanks again for the information and help Janet

Could someone please tell me where 'Show transition effect from desktop' and 'Show transition effect to desktop from the last slide' are in the new version? It used to be under 'Screen Options' but I can't find it. Also, is the '% of the screen to show slideshow' gone?? I have had PTE for a few years now and love it even though I don't use it that often. I am hoping someone can tell me where these few items are in the new version and assure me that they haven't been left out I appreciate your help. Janet
