Nice!

OK. A few niggles too and a few suggestions to make it (even) better.

I don't like the start-up screen where the 'Gallery' option does nothing else than taking you to their website to try and sell you an upgrade. And also that it forces using IE for that instead of my default browser Firefox which it also does for the 'Online Help' option in the program. This was also the case with the DVD Slideshow Builder given away on 10 September. Wondershare hasn't changed this yet and it's still annoying.

Having said that and having used only a small portion of the program so far what I very much like is the customisable 'Ken Burns' motion effect where you can define exactly from where to where the panning and/or zooming moves. I also like how you can use two instances of the same photo and it by using the option "Set start position to be the same as end position of the previous picture" allowing you to pan across a photo to a part of a photo in the first instance of the photo and zooming in on that part in the second instance. Nice! However... For that effect to work best I need an immediate and seamless transition between the two instances of the photo but when I delete the transition effect I still get a small 'jump' between the two images. Whether this is due to an imperfect selection of the same area or because the motion in the second instance begins immediately and I have only used it on an older computer which is stressed to the max by such Flash-based applications I can't tell. Which brings me to the other suggestions I have.

I cannot enter them into the Idea Informer because that simply won't work for me no matter what I try. Others have expressed that same issue before. So I'll simply describe them here.

I would like to have the option to set both a time before the motion effect starts and also after it ends. For instance: Stationary for a second - Motion for 5 seconds - Stationary for half a second - Immediate transition - Stationary for half a second - Motion for three seconds - Stationary for 2 seconds - Transition to next photo.

The "Set start position to be the same as end position of the previous picture" should also have an added checkbox: "Remove transition between previous and current picture" so you don't have to do that separately.

Ideally you should be able to set a more complex motion to different positions in a picture within the settings of that single picture. With pauses and even curved motions, accelerations and decelerations, with multiple subtitles (or audio commentary) you could really tell a story that way.

This better control over this Ken Burns style effects was (still) absent in the DVD Slideshow Builder which (to me) significantly reduced it's appeal. If Wondershare haven't added this to this program yet they should do so ASAP, preferably with my suggestions added (and do a Giveaway of it of course). :)

It would also be preferable to have the option to switch off (start/stop or start/pause) the constant showing of the effect. It slows the computer down to an annoying extent on less fast systems. Maybe an option to set a smaller size of that previewing for slower systems would be useful too.

And please remove that annoying question about opening the folder after the Publish phase that pops up every time. Just add a checkbox to the window where you press the [Publish] button that says: "Open folder after publishing" or something similar that stays the way you set it. Much more user-friendly IMHO.

I was still looking for software that would give me more control over the Ken Burns style effects because I like how you can almost change static photos into a movie with it. Today's Giveaway brings it definitely a step closer to what I want.

Good: Drag and drop, so it's mostly just double clicking your way through. Very simple. Not professional, but excellent for most casual users. Can add your own music from many popular file formats.
Bad: Couldn't find anything, it seems to do what it says.
Overall, i'd say it's a handy app to have if you ever need to make a slideshow

This is a great piece of software for webmasters and bloggers alike. I have the deluxe version so I will pass on this one today.
very easy to use,my 11 year old actually put together the silde slow for my newest review on my web site. http://www.xfastpc.com/slideshow.html
it comes packed with transitions/clip art/effects/slide motions/animations and sound files for audio effects.
when you are ready to publish your work you can publish in the following formats: SWF MOVIE/SHARE ALBUM ONLINE/XML FILE/HTML FILE/EXECUTABLE FILE/SEND VIA EMAIL AND EVEN MAKE IT YOUR SCREEN SAVER.
you can choose the out put quality and size and put a hyper link at the end of your slide show. choose from auto play or manual and your preloader.
there are so many templates to choose from such as:
.easter
.fathers day
.mothers day
.Christmas theme
.new years
.Halloween
.graduation
.weddings and more!

I have enjoyed this software very much and will suggest it to any one who puts things online. NO YOU CAN NOT POST TO FACE BOOK OR YOUTUBE. they do not support swf formats.
very smooth running software for flash.
Now as for the spelling mistakes that they made, English is not their first language, Chinese is. so give them a little slack on the spelling.
as for customer service you can not get any better! they are 100% involved with their clients. so much so that I have 2 staff members as friends on my face book that I chat with a couple of times a week.Wondershare is one of these company's that will become a house hold name.
Do not pass on this one or you will kick your self later when you have to pay for it.
Always like to wake up,check giveawayoftheday and see some thing by WONDERSHARE, then I know I am getting good software.
and yes I do sell their software only because I have used so much of it and stand behind it 100%.
Excellent giveaway GOTD and WONDERSHARE

I posted this before but it has disappeared so I'll repost.
The pictures in the swf are not as sharp as the original pictures...they are a little fuzzy. I have the settings set to Best and have tried a few different Output Sizes. Can you suggest settings that will give me the best quality output?

thx...
