    Ugh - PPT used to allow you to add an album that put a picture on each slide. That doesn't seem to exist any more for PPT for Mac (source: I made our wedding slide show 15 years ago on a PC with PPT and it was sooooo easy). I will be using Keynote after all, at least to start because I will have hundreds of pics!

    These are wonderful, Thank you! We recently lost my sister and have been overwhelmed with not only planning her memorial, but the amount of items we are handling,saving and juggling etc. We don't want things lost in the jumble of it all. A guest book would not work as well for our family.

    • @NewNarrative
      @NewNarrative 8 місяців тому

      Oh I'm glad you found this helpful! It really is something magical to be able to capture guest memories in something a bit more permanent and meaningful than a lined book. Often, guests have so much to say and share with you! And these memories are what you'll treasure for a long time.

    How long & amount of pictures for a very small memorial . Less than 30. My sister just passed away yesterday. I want to do something special.

    • @NewNarrative
      @NewNarrative 11 місяців тому

      Hi @susan1098 - Please accept my condolences on hearing about the loss of your sister. Personally, I find that 5 seconds per picture is a good amount. With that logic, you can get 12 photos per 60 seconds. So, if you have around 30 photos, the video will be around 2 -3 minutes. I hope this helps! Don't hesitate to connect with us at support@newnarrative.ca if we can help further ❤

    10 minutes is too long for a slideshow. only if you are including alot of video.

    • @NewNarrative
      @NewNarrative Рік тому

      You'd be surprised how fast the slideshow actually goes! In my opinion, if you have many photos, 5s is just enough time to view the photo briefly before moving on. Having lots of musical variety helps as well!

    trying to add my transitions. When I right click on the first picture, there is no "select all" option. When I just click on "transitions" there is only the one option of time duration, and no check box for "mouse click." I can't get it to play without clicking the mouse.
