No No No, I mean to edit a reply on a topic not posted by me. I still can't find how.

Thanks Stu, Long time no see. Thailand was refreshing. You should try it.

Hi Bill, You can remore all my presentations but please leave the utilities for members. I will probably use this chance you give us to improve some of the presentations and some to upload to my site and put only the link on your site. Happy work and happy new year,

Hi to all, I'm reading this topic from the beginning and I'm really curious. How can anyone steal your pictures unless you give them to him ? And if you give someone a CD, why not make him sign on a printed thumbnails page ? This will probably eliminate all his desire to use your pictures without paying. And if he uses them anyway, you can get your full money or even more from the court, and get a free publicity of being someone his work worth to be stolen.

Hi Gerry, Suppose you want a ball to roll from one side of the screen to the other side. just put the ball at the corner and save the slide. copy the slide and move the ball a little to the center. Copy the slide again and move it a little more. Copy the slide again...till you reach the other corner. Now, you want the ball to turn and not to be static. for this you will have to use an image editing program like Photoshop where you turn the image a bit, save, turn a bit more, save, and so on. Now back to your slides. Change the images from the second slide on by order. On the second slide put the first image you made, on the next slide put the next image you made, and so on. The quality of your show depends on how many slides you make, same as in regular animation. If you have a program that can make your animation (I use Gif Constraction) you can make the animation you want, extract all the images, and use them. notice that you can't do it if the animation is transparent. Download my "Dancing Skeleton" and see a presentation which is all a long animation, built in this way. good luck

I can't see how I can edit my reply to a topic. Where it is ?

Hi Guido and Brian, I see Guido you are recoverd from your computer problem, but what about the 1500 !? You will have to work very hard again. Next time 1500 don't let Igor change the forum. Can I install the 3.8 version ? If you say it's safe so I'll do it. Brian, I really wondered who is bothering me while surrounded with beautiful Thai girls. I took 2500 pictures and I'm breaking my mind to remember what is where and where is what. Till now I made only 2 albums: http://www.thailandphotoalbum.com/Sukhothai_setup.exe http://www.thailandphotoalbum.com/Phitsanu...nulok_setup.exe More to come.

Another small trick that sometimes help is to make the presentation at least 800x600 or Full Screen (better). But the best thing is to allow people use some of your pictures for private use after asking permission. In this case you'll get free advertisement.

I agree but... Since sometimes an answer to a question fits to other topics, members who have a problem and are looking for a similar topic can miss the answer. So in my opinion the basic forum should be devided to 2 main sections: 1. Sounds 2. Other Many times a topic is posted about subject A but answers deals with subjects B, C or D. other sections can be: 3. Tricks and tips 4. URLs of presentations on members sites 5. Free software, related sites etc. And now for my original idea: Since a search is looking for words, it often happen that you get a list of topics but the word you were looking for was just mentioned and the topic is not the one you need. Or, someone have a problem with "autorun" but the answer he gets deals, for example, with "image size". "Good" answers are sometimes lost in "bad" question. That means, a simple uninteresting question may follow by a very interesting answer. To solve this problem we can leave the forum as it is and allow members, while writting, to mark the subjects mentioned in their question or answer. The same way we can choose the smiles icons. If someone asking about autorun problem he will mark the "autorun", and if the answer will deal with something connected to size of images (example only), he will mark "image size". In that way the topic will appear not only in the "autorun" section but also in the "image size" section. It will be possible to mark all subjects mentioned. In that way an answer will never get lost. I hope you follow me.

I want to add a sound to a button while click on. I think I can do it by duplicating the slide and adding sound to the new slide, but I'm looking for a shorter way, if there is, before I start working. Who knows ? Thanks

Hi to all, this is boxig. Been in Thailand for 30 days, back with beautiful pictures. Here is the first I made, 69 pictures (800x600) from Sukhothai Historical Park: http://www.thailandphotoalbum.com/Sukhothai_setup.exe Don't worry about the installation program, you can uninstall with the uninstaller provided. But where is the old forum ? I used to read old topics, where are they ? Also, if someone have questions about my utilities and posted them on the old forum, please post again. And last thing: How the new version works ? I'm still with the old one. I hope this new forum will be as great as before. boxig
