Hey everyone,

Since pilots almost always seem to be frustrated artists, I thought I would bounce this question off of you guys

Does anyone know of a good (and free) slideshow making program? Something simple that lets you include music and looks good when it's in fullscreen...

Links would be awesome!

Thanks!

I use Microsoft Movie Maker. It comes with Windows XP and is real easy to use.

Yup, what he said. 'Looks good in full-screen' has more to do with the original footage than with the program used to put it all together.

Anything looks cool with AC/DC Highway to Hell as a soundtrack!!

Microsoft PowerPoint could be an option if you had it.

Check out: http://www.openoffice.org/

It's an Open Source office suite that should more than suit your needs. I haven't gotten around to using it much, but what I've seen so far is good.

Goodbye,

Louis

I totally forgot about this. Open Office Impress is the freeware alternative to Microsoft Powerpoint. It's exactly what you want.
