I have used the free microsoft slideshow software, which does work but I'm looking for software with more options. I just downloaded Photo Story Platinum trial but wonder if you fine folks have experience with other programs.

Thanks............

Not sure if you are looking for a slideshow program or a Presentation Program?

Open Office has a presentation program similar to Microsoft Powerpoint. Open Office is free to download at www.openoffice.org

If you just want to make a slide show, JASC (PaintShopPro) once had a Photo Album that could make a slideshow.
 
For a quick and dirty slideshow program with no big overhead, I've been
using LViewPro for about 10+ years. I still have an OLD version that I registered
way back when.. and I refuse to upgrade it. The newer versions tacks on many
bells and whistles that I don't want.

It wasn't free, but it wasn't expensive. I use it as my main image viewer, because
it isn't a memory hog, starts up FAST (like .. instantly!) and it isn't a big, bloated
piece of crap like most programs are today. (gee.. bitter much? )
 
It would help if you explained better what you wanted to do with it?
The ones mentioned are all good for most needs. I have also found ThumbsPlus and ProShow Gold (Photodex) to be good.

Right. Forgot the part of why I need it.

Thousands of 35mm slides, mostly family stuff. The first big conversion was a DisneyWorld trip. I have scanned the slides and edited them.

I have seen other peoples slideshows that have music and voice over effects. Maybe they all have and I just haven't sorted it out yet.

I'd like to add old tape recorded stories from grandpa along with interesting stories regarding a special trip or event. Mostly for our grandkids.
