Is there a good PC program that will allow you to run a slideshow of pictures as your desktop background?

I have a slide show of my pictures I have stored on my computer as a screen saver. \n Put all the pictures you want on the slide show in one file. \n\nStart>  \ncontrol panel >\n display>\nscreen saver> \nmy picture display \nthen pick the file with all your pictures in it \nthen hit apply.\n\nif this isn't what you want you can also create a yahoo group, add a folder of all your pictures in the photos section and then create a slide show.\n\nThose are the only ways I know of if anyone has a better idea I'm gonna watch because I want to know myself.

Here are two of my choices:\n\nFor a professional-like but totally free great photo editing software try GIMP. You will use it for many other editing jobs too:\n\nhttp://www.gimp.org/\n\nFor a less sophisticated but still totally free program try Paint.NET. It looks and feels like the original Windows Paint but much more muscle power:\n\nhttp://www.eecs.wsu.edu/paint.net/\n\nOK...For a REALLY simple editor which can resize and crop images to specific sizes try:\n\nhttp://www.softforall.com/Multimedia/MediaManagement/CoffeeCup_Free_Viewer_Plus07060042.htm

if you want something user friendly and free get Picasa\nhttp://www.sleekbytes.com/picasa-google.htm

Picasa is probably going to do what you want. Short of that, Photoshop Elements is excellent, too.

I guess the prior contributor didn't read your question carefully.  :)\n\nOK, so you don't want a fancy slideshow with transitions and stuff.  All you want is a DVD or picture CD where you can have full control of your pictures so you can skip to the next at the press of a button.  \n\nI haven't done this but it's just a thought... Most CD burning programs can create a standard VCD where you can drag and drop JPEG files into it and it creates tracks.  I believe this is what you need.  You won't have audio but you will probably just get a picture slideshow where it will just play one image and when you click the skip button, *I think, it will go to the next one.  \n\nTake a look a NERO and create a Video CD project and just drag and drop JPEGs into it.\n\nWorth a try...\n\nThere is another software called DVD Architect by Sony and I think that's overkill for this but it allows you to create a script for the DVD which I believe can control a lot more stuff.  But like I said, it would be overkill and you would have to learn how to do DVD scripting.

There is a free photoshop like program called the GIMP\nhttp://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/\nYou would have to be quite expert at using a mouse to white out the background and then you could select that color to be transparent or to a reverse select to select just the rest of the picture.... a wacom tablet pen makes all this much easier.

If you're using Windows XP, you should be able to choose "Windows Slideshow" as one of your options. Under the "Advanced" tab, you can designate a folder and put whatever images you like in the folder. Otherwise, you could try Photo Story 3, which can be found at www.download.com.

You can create a desktop wallpaper and assign it via Group Policy which would be the better way. What text are you trying to toss to the Desktop?

Assuming you want to set a personal picture as your desktop background, simply click on "Browse" (after you get to properties) and find where you saved to picture.

There is a program I use called Nero 7 Ultra Edition. You can use this to create CD / DVD slide shows with music, transition effect and nice backgrounds.\n\nHope this helps....
