Anne, Once you have added all your photo's you can select all the thumbnails that you want the SAME transition to run (highlight them all) then go to your transitions and pick the one you want and then add the timing numbers you want, the amount of time each photo will be shown and the amount of time transitioning to the next photo. What works in Powerpoint I have no idea, I never use it as Keynote is more robust so I run it from a laptop.
The warning you had in your second email is telling you that if you use a frame around your photo inside the less able Powerpoint the frame will be all thats visible. I just created two VERY large Keynote programs for my 50 year class reunion and the first set were all inside a picture album with the old fashion triangle corners holding the photo on the sheet. I exported it as a QuickTime movie and added it to FinalCut where I could add the woosh of the page turn as each photo was transitioned to the next. This won't be possible with Powerpoint, you'll need to have the photo's plain with no item in the background.
