centreofengland Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 I have uploaded a new show which is VERY simply and small enough for dial-up users to download (798Kb).A Fading then and now photograph HERE.One of the first things that most impressed me with PTE was the quality of the fade. Other slide show programs came no where near to the PTE. At the time I was looking for a suitable way to show off my latest creations, which were 'lined up then and now photographs'. These consist of two images of a local scene which have been taken years apart, I have spent a lot of time working out how to make the two images line up pixel for pixel so that when one image is placed on top of the other the buildings match up. By creating a slow fade between the two images allows you to see all that has changed in time. Making a show for these in PTE means I can use full screen images and also use variable fade times.This is using PTE in its simplest form, its not pushing it to its limit here but I found that it was the best solution to the problem.If you like this show then there are many more (70+) of these type of presentations, but in web page format on my website, just follow the link at the end of my presentation.ThanksAndy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
