SUMMARY

You can create a slide show in Picture It! by using the Slide Show command on the Share It! menu. The last screen of the Slide Show Wizard allows you to view the slide show or place a shortcut on your desktop for easy viewing.

MORE INFORMATION

If you make a shortcut, you can view the slide show at any time by double- clicking the shortcut icon, it looks like a white square with a black camera on it. Once you have the slide show viewer running, you can view other slide shows by opening them using the Open command on the File menu.

To run a slide show do the following:

Double-click My Computer.
Open the folder you saved the slide show in, usually: \\ProgramFiles\Microsoft Picture It!\Slide Shows
Double-click the Slide Show file. If three-letter filename extensions are visible it will have the extension, .psf.

If for some reason the slide show doesn't play when you double-click it, re-install Picture It!.
