SlideshowZilla Editor's Review

SlideshowZilla is an animation utility designed to help you create exquisite standalone (Flash SWF) slideshows which can be published on websites, used in presentations or sent over to your friends' enjoyment.

The program user interface has a very nice design and is very well structured, so that you can create slideshows with a few mouse clicks. The wizard-like interface is structured into three steps.

Now, the process of creating slideshows is quite easy to complete. First, you need to select the graphic files you want to add to the slideshow. During this phase, you can select a transition effect, the transition duration and the photo show duration. The pictures can be customized by rotating them, adding formatted text, text macros or art clips.

Next, you need to choose the slideshow theme and add sound to the slideshow, if you want to. You can attach MP3, WAV, WMA audio files or you can add music from a CD. After the preparations have been finished, you can build the output file. The program will create a SWF file embedded into a HTML file. There is also the possibility of creating a presentation CD or DVD using the in-built disk burner.
