Anyone have a website that can be used to create a DVD photoslide show to music?

I use Roxio to make DVD slideshows w/ music. I'm working on 4 right now, one for our Cub Scout Pack, one for Dustin's Eagle Scout Ceremony, 1 for ourselves w/ our Disney pics and one for Carl, just because. I did the same last year for the Pack and also one this spring for DSO when her dad died (they played it at his funeral).

Its wasn't free, about $50.00 last year when I bought it, but I have used it plenty and love it.

Of course I'm sure someone here will have a better suggestion, but I thought I'd add my 2 cents....so this thread doesn't go centless....(ha, ha, ha).

Thank you!! I was feeling abandoned!!!! I want to do this with photos from DD's trip to Disney.

My brother makes great ones, but he has a Mac and it comes with great software for this! Sorry I can't be of more help!

OK, I had to laugh at your profile:

Miami - Rudest Drivers in the USA!

YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOOO RIGHT!! We moved from the DC metro area, always top 3 in the nation in worst drivers, and I tell you, South FLORIDA is so much worse!!! These people are TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!! If it isnt a darn tourist, it is some old lady who cant see over the steering wheel, some jerk cutting you off, etc.

I love living here!

Where in South Florida are you?

If you use Windows, there is a program on there called "MovieMaker", which is what I usually use. You d not need to spend any money. If you have a Mac, the program is "iMovie". Both are excellent and, once you get going, pretty easy to use.

Here's my latest that I made for Tina from the board:

I made this one recently for our school Prom:

You can PM me if you have any questions.

good luck!

Wow, Rebecca, those are great! Now I am going to try that Windows based site. I would love to be able to do this!

Is it moviemaker.com?

I'm glad you were able to get good results with Movie Maker. I found it more bothersome to use than (for me) it was worth. Just shows that there is a product out there for everybody, and somebody for every product.

Just search the programs on your PC. MovieMaker is usually there. Although you may need to update it.

I used a program called Studio (Version 9) to create a slide show with music a few years ago. I'm sure i'ts been updated since but I found it very easy to use (a little bit of a learning curve). Lot's of transitions, drag and drop stuff. Plus a lot of advanced features if you want to get more into it. I think I either bought it for <$50 or it came free with the video card.

It was also easy to make the movies with, etc.

I found it in the PC. Clicked Start, then All Programs, and it was in the left column, right after quicktime

I use photostory it was a free download when I got it I believe it still is it lets you fix photos and has different transitions from pic to pic as well as letting you add music or you can do your own voice over if you have a mic as well as text. Pretty in depth for a free program.
