Flickris the most likely place to have your images, so let’s start there.
and see how to create Flickr slideshows.
And hey, you’re here already, right?
you’re free to, if you wish, create a slideshow of your entire photostream.
Unless you have a severely limited stream of images though, this isn’t the best of plans.
Share the slideshow, and invite folk to watch it.
A short note on flickr jargon.
Asetis an array of images of your own, collected together on whatever basis you like.
Acollectionis an array of sets.
Agroupis like a set, but contains images from a number of different flickr members.
We’ll stick with a set for this.
The easiest way to create a set is in theOrganizer.
Otherwise you’re going to need to scroll to the right with the arrows.
I’ll wait politely while you do that.
Now pick the Add to set button at the top of the page.
Your friends will thank you.
tap the flickr icon, top right, to return to your normal view of the flickr site.
poke the arrow to the right of You, and punch Your Sets.
hit the set you just created.
smack the Slideshow button, top right.
The slideshow is created, and up and running.
There are various options on the slideshow screen for setting options such as fullscreen, enlarging images (calledembiggening!
), showing titles, and playing in reverse.
Just slide the mouse over the top right of the page to see them.
From here, click Share.
These days, scrawling the details somewhere and photographing it is pretty painless.
Otherwise there is plenty of software that will add titles for you.
kindly don’t apply them to all the slides though.
That gets old very quickly.
There are a huge number of slideshow sites out there now.
Here are some based on ‘Wellington".
