Slide shows are an extremely popular way to share digital photos because they replicate the old-time experience of gathering 'round a 35mm slide projector and gazing at images on a portable screen--only now you can watch your slides while sitting in front of your television or computer display.

If Windows' meager tools leave you longing for more bells and whistles to tinker with, however, we'll show you how to put together a pull-out-all-the-stops slide show--one that includes transitions, captions, sound tracks, and other effects--using Roxio's $75 Easy Media Creator 7, a program you may already use for burning CDs.
