I'll try and get you started here. See link for DEMO, says Vista, ok for Win 7 too. All the music on the PC should work on the Laptop without issue. To transfer / move the music from PC to Laptop, it's the same as moving any file. Several ways to go about it. Move it to a flash drive, burn it to a cd, or move it to a USB external drive. The music on the PC is in a folder on the hard drive usually in the My Music folder. That's the folder you would move to the flash drive, or external drive, hook the flash drive or external drive to the new computer and copy / drag the files / folder to the Laptop My Music folder. The demo should cover getting what music into Movie Maker using the import function or dragging. When you listen to music on the PC, what program plays it, Itunes, Windows Media Player, other?

You can click on the "Collections" button on the tool bar to bring up your collections. Then right click on the collection that you don't want anymore and select DELETE. Or you can right click on each picture/sound/video in the collections in the center box area and delete them as you want. Also - when you have the Collections pane viewable on the left - you can right click on "collections" and select New Collection. Then you can rename that whatever you like. That helps me keep track of what I am working on. I use a new collection for each project. I do delete them afer a while to keep the clutter down. One thing to note - Even if you have "saved" your slideshow, you need to keep the pictures in the same space if you ever want to use that show again. If you have burnt the show to disk - it will be fine on the disk, you won't need to worry about it. But if you have just saved the show to your hard drive, and want to go back and burn that show again to something with it - if the pictures have been moved or deleted (not from the collections, but from the actual hard drive) - you will be missing those pictures from you Slide Show. Don't ever change the location of the pictures you are working with, while working on a show either. I moved some from my hard drive to my external hard drive once, without thinking how it would affect the slide show - that was a mess! It was fine when I moved them back to the original location until I was finished with my project. I think there might be some WMM tutorials on YouTube. I am on dialup - so I can't really find any to link you to right now.

I have one, what you have drawn looks about right in length and placement from the front lip, but it looks too wide. The base isn't wider than the slide like that. If you take a look at the installation manual on the SR Smith site it should help you, it shows the base from a lot of different angles. See link below. You might have noticed that they call for an overhang (from lip of slide exit to pool decking edge) of 4" minimum. If you locate it like that about half the water coming down the slide ends up all over your decking. Annoyingly, they did not mold a lip into the front edge of the slide so most of the water wicks under and runs back along the bottom of the slide. I fixed this by installing a vinyl drip edge (garage door trim) along the bottom where the lip should be. Works like a charm, all the water dumps back into the pool. There are some pictures of it in my build thread, if you haven't seen it let me know and I'll find the link. Here is a link that might be useful: Installation manual

Thanks for the photos. The reason I didn't like the look of the sliding windows is because we are putting wood on the inside so it makes the track stand out. Rhome410...I thought a window like yours would have been a great compromise, but most window companies I have looked at that offer the wood/clad combination do not make a window like yours in the smaller size. Kitchenaddict - Your window looks great. Did you build it out so you could wrap your backsplash over it and make a sill? I don't think I would mind the sliding window (even with the wood) if I can make a ledge like yours, but I am not sure I can since our exterior is brick. littlesmokie - We were not going with casement because there is a deck outside that wraps around the back of the house. Although the kitchen window opens over the larger area, there is a narrow walkway to the right. The window is 57" wide so I think when you opened the windows it would be in the way on the deck.
