If you're using some flavor of Windows Laptop, Irfanview will let you
create an slide show in an windows EXE file. You can specify how it
will fit on the display, say full width of full height and pick a
background color, black usually works well, even add music, though I
think I'd kill something if a continuously looping slideshow played
"Love Story" over and over and over... I'd check that out. It's almost
idiot proof.

Hi folks,
I've been below periscope depth most of the last month, largely because our
son's wedding is Saturday.
For the rehearsal dinner Friday, I've gathered 150 jpgs of him and his fiancee
through the years, which I'd like to have running as a continuous looping slide
show. The venue has a 1080P projector with a DVD player attached, though one
can also attach one's computer.
The guy at the venue recommended transferring the pix to iMovie and burning it
to a DVD. I tried that, but the tops and bottoms of portrait-oriented pix got
cut off. Time is short, so I can't do anything elaborate.
So, the questions are:
- is there another way to project from a DVD?
- If not, and we have to take a laptop along, would you recommend projecting
from Lightroom, iPhoto, or something else?
- Is there an advantage to a pdf slide show? What software would you use to
project it?
Thanks!
Rick
