Also StillMotion has most of the function of our larger Ultimate S Photo Montage at a lower price point. You literally just add your pictures and press OK and it does all the work. Try it for 15 days for free with no limitations.
JohnnyRoy, my apologies for posting in this forum and the DMN forum. I was looking for an answer before the weekend.
Anyways, you nailed the issue in the other forum. After I purchased StillMotion, the purchase confirmation email link led me to version 1.2.2. I downloaded from the Still Motion page which was version 1.3 and presto!
I did one of these last winter, using C#. I think it does more or less what you want automatically. Put your images on a track by themselves. Invoke the script MakeSlideShow and a window will appear. Enter the track name, zoom limits, and crossfade time settings. It will randomly zoom/pan and crossfade all of the slides on the track.
I'm very much interested in your slideshow script. Unfortunetly the link you prowided is dead now. Could you make a new link or if possible send the script to my e-mai please? (tomasz.morawik@gmail.com)
