    Hi Folks,

    I was recently at a regatta and a photographer was selling photos. Now he had a big LCD connected to his laptop and it was running a slideshow of pictures you could buy with the number underneath them. It had different transitions etc but I couldn't get the name of the program. Does anyone have any ideas? I amn't in it for profit but it would suit the bill of a function I've coming up.

    Many Thanks,

    ironclaw.

    You just described every slideshow programme out there.
    Can you give a bit more details?

    Oh, sorry about that. Could you recommend a good one? I just want to download the shots from the DSLR, edit them if needs be and then drop them in a folder where they will be displayed in turn with a number attached to them. I don't need it to create a movie / DVD. Also, if it was freeware that would be an advantage

    Could have been just about any app, if he had a mac it was most likely iPhoto :)

    Picasa should do that too. Just title the pic with a number, click on 'show titles' or whatever on the slideshow and Bob's your uncle.

    Even Windows (XP and Vista) has a slideshow option. Just open the folder, and run the slideshow.

    There is another package called something express which is a complete package that allows printing, sales monitoring, slideshows etc. on it.

    Borderfox uses it at the eventing shows. I can't remember the proper name for it though but I'm sure he will tell you.

    A bit late coming to this thread. I think the program you are talking is EPS 3 - Event Photography Systems Version 3. You can do all you mentioned and more.

    Hope this helps
