first a complaint .... i open it.. it fills the screen completely ... even the bar that i dont know what it is called... so every note i type here.. will involve closing the program.. and reopenning it ... i guess i would like if it ran like a screen saver.. so i could do other things.. and be surprised what pops up when i minimize windows ... now.. hopefully i can remember ... first pic of jean's memorial garden.. looks like green arrow on left ... and there is a big green picea???? on the right.. that looks like it has white growth or cones.. any chance at an ID .... i will reopen the slide show and check properties.. to see if i can get a pic name ... brb.. lol .. couldnt do it ... other thoughts. ... i like on the third version down.. if i hit pause.. i then control the page turning for the duration ... i can skip those that are zone improper.. and linger on those i like... love the purple and pink cone pix... what kind of camera are you using.. with what attachments... i always presumed saybrook gold came out of saybrook OH.. girards or al fournash .... surprised to see your mass planting ... i know you guys have a lot of PPending plants... is it correct that all are NOT patented .. in other words.. you propagate salable plants .. rather than just your own?? i have a plant .. one of my first .. so i wasnt a nomenclature freak back then .. that i thought was Picea abies WB .... i presumed it was just a witches broom off P.a. ... but i see you have P.a. 'witches BROOD' ... now i am wondering if mine isnt that ... and its under a foot of ice and snow... wonder if i have a pic on the hard drive.. presuming your show didnt wipe me out.. lol ... never mind .. my database says: Picea glauca 'Witches Broom Seedling' .. pic below regardless .... which has absolutely nothing to do with your P. a. .. but i apparently digress ... and note my ton thumb behind it.. why are your pix so much better than mine???? it has to be the camera .. maybe the operator... finally .. many of your specimens look a bit sickly .. if you send me one of each ... i will nurse them along for you .. to insure your future success ..... rotflmbo .... ken

Coho, I posted on the other thread before I saw this. Several years ago, I purchased a computer that had Norton installed. I could not burn a DVD on that computer until after I removed every trace of Norton. When I called Tech support at Norton, they told me that it was a known problem, and sent me a refund check. That was many years ago however, and I wouldn't think they would still be having that problem.

Thank you for the link, Bob. Sure wish there was an easier way. Sounds way too complicated for us computer novices. Jeanie

I made a short slide show in windows movie maker to show you what could be done. I put the 5 pictures in a folder, opened windows movie maker, clicked on 'add videos and photos', navigated to the folder and selected all of them and clicked 'Open'. They all uploaded to movie maker. I then clicked on 'Animations' tab and added a transition and saved the movie as demo. Here's a link to it so you can see if you want to use it. You will recognize the subject.
