Slideshow

Add image folders to \\hda\pictures and invoke Slideshow again to see them!

Exporting Pictures from Picasa

One feature of Slideshow is that it seamlessly supports Google's Picasa picture folders, including captions !

This is how to create Slideshows from Picasa folders:

  • In a Picasa picture folder, edit your picture originals and captions as you would normally do
  • Select all the pictures in a folder that you want to export (note: it's common to forget selecting pictures.)
  • Right-click on the folder you want to export and click on "Export as HTML page ..."
   
  • In the "Export as HTML Page" Window, select your preferred size (800x600 is good enough for typical monitors).
  • Click on "Browse..." and navigate to the \\hda\pictures network locationm then click on "Next >"
 
  • In the "Select a Web Page Template" window, select "XML Code" and click on "Finish".
