Bob - I just watched your slideshow. It was AMAZING! I want to do one of my own and share it with all of you generous people that have helped me so much.

It looks like you had a blast! I can't wait for my Amalfi Coast trip next year.

By the way - your wife is pretty!

Great slide show, Bob. Tell me, how much control do you have on the TripWow program as far as the transitions and the amount of time a photo stays on screen?

bobthenavigator Sep 30th, 2010 01:39 PM

Betty, I took all of the default settings but I do not think I had much control at all. Try it out. The download was faster than most programs. I am told I can hold an image by left clicking on that image--have not tried it yet. Most of this is all pre-set--you tell it where you started, you name the destinations, you pick the music[I only had one chocie[, and it does the rest.

I like Susan's Roman nose. Or is it Greek?

Nice slideshow. But, curses!, now I want to go back even though there are so many other places I need to see.

Very nice! Really makes me want to go...maybe someday!

I've heard a rumor that the beautiful Mrs Navigator used to be on television...and now she's just settled for being married to a comedian!

Wonderful photos and a fun way to share! Thanks Bob!

Love it! Thanks, Bob.

Great pictures Bob... what size megapixel is your camera (or are the pictures saved as) - i have to admit that one of my favorites is the orange/red flowers against the grey wall... very striking! We leave in 13 days for our trip!

allisonm Sep 30th, 2010 05:36 PM

Okay, I tried it too. Click here for Ireland pictures, if you dare...http://tripwow.tripadvisor.com/tripw...3-2e12-eb74?ln
The music is pretty monotonous but I think you have some options to upload your own music clips. Fun to mess around with!

Debbie, My camera is a rather modest Fuji at 10 MPX. Good light and subject matter always helps.
If you want to see better quality shots of the AC find the trip report by Isabel--now she is good.

Looks like you had a great vacation too, Allison. Nice photos.

2010 Sep 30th, 2010 10:20 PM

Your slideshow is fantastic, Bob!!! I enjoyed seeing the beautiful images of Ireland, Allison!

As one who is technically-challenged, will it be an easy process for me to put a slideshow together?

YvonneT Sep 30th, 2010 10:24 PM

2010, the short answer is "Yes". They lead you through the process quite nicely. Just try one for the heck of it, and see what you think. My biggest hassle was not being able to use my own music (my problem, have to try again), but otherwise, it's most satisfying and fun. Go for it!

I wanna be one of the cool kids! So I made a slideshow of my trip to Prague...mostly architectural details, and lots of pictures of Prague, bone church, Kutna Hora...

YvonneT Oct 1st, 2010 01:33 AM

You are cool! You'll be recruiting folks to visit Prague now.

isabel Oct 1st, 2010 04:08 AM

Hey thanks Bob.

I'm tempted to go play with it but afraid I'll end up spending hours and hours. Maybe this weekend.
