saul_gan1 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Hi,I am looking to display images via a photomontage at wedding receptions.I am looking for a program that will allow me to use my laptop to correct/crop my images, add/delete images from my slideshow, & output a full screen slideshow on an external monitor for guests to view. Anyone doing this type of display at wedding receptions & what softwareprogram(s) are you using? I am using a PC laptop btw. Thank you,S.G.

gerund Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Photoshop Elements 5.0 will do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gina_marie1 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Except for the cropping & editing Showit Web would do that easily: http://www.showitfast.com/ Again, it does not perform image editing but once you point it to your folder of images, you have a slideshow up & running on your pc in a matter of minutes.

stephen dohring Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 To do to what you want Adobe Lightroom is the way to go. There is a free beta version as it is not for sale. Some learning curve but not much. I think Pro show Gold is the easiest system to use and is a great program but you can't edit the photos only make S.S.

saul_gan1 Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 Hi, Thanx all for your responses! I checked out Adobe Lightroom & seems this is exactly what I am looking for. My only concern is can it utilize a dual monitor set up? Like I said I wanted to use a laptop for editing & output the slideshow to a full screen crt monitor. And my other concern is since it is in a Beta stage right now are all the controls fully functional? Thanx again, S.G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jefferson_todd_pals Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Can't you do most of this with Bridge? You can mark your faves by starring them and then show only the starred images and display a slideshow directly from Bridge. It won't zoom/ pan, but at least you'll have your images shown. Showit Web is pretty sweet for web based slideshows, but it won't show the images full screen so I wouldn't suggest using that for a reception. Although I personally consider it a MUST for after the wedding and getting my clients to talk about my business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
