Frequently Asked Questions

What do you mean by invitation slideshow?

The slideshow is compiled using your chosen photographs and we add motion effects to each them, zooming in and out or rotating to create a moving presentation. Fading in and out between images (Transitions) are also used to produce a smooth movement between your photos and our design images.

Why can I not view the sample slideshow?

Due to the size and nature of the software used a download plug-in (2MB) and broadband connection is required to do this. You can click on the link directing you to view the show using windows media.
