7. To set different display durations and add sound annotation to individual
images, select the image(s) in the Slideshow storyboard and the Slideshow
Options button.
8. To add background music starting at a certain image in the slideshow, drag and
drop the file(s) beneath the desired image in the Slideshow Storyboard. Each
time you add music, be it single or multiple selected files, the selected music
will be inserted as a single clip beneath the range of images it will play alongside
with.
Repeat the above process to add more background music to various parts of the
slideshow.
If the duration of a music clip is shorter than the total duration of the range of
images which it was applied to, the music will continuously be replayed until its
corresponding images have all been displayed. To avoid replaying music, you can
synchronize the duration of images with the duration of the music by checking
both durations first before adding music.
• To append more music files to a music clip, hold down the <Ctrl> key and drag
selected files from the Browse Pane onto the starting image of the music clip.
• To move a music clip to another image, drag it to the desired image.
If the image already had accompanying music, the transferred clip will totally
replace it.
9. Click the Show button to preview the slideshow with the present settings.
10. When you are satisfied with the slide order, click the Save button, then

11. Depending on the purpose of your slideshow, there are different methods of
preparing the file for viewing:
• The slideshow can be viewed at any time on your Joybook by double-clicking on
the (*.UES) file you created in step 10.
• Click the Package button to copy all the files used in the slideshow to a sepa-
rate folder where they can be easily accessed so you can e-mail the entire show to
a friend or relative that also uses Photo Explorer.
• Click the Export button to create a Web Slideshow that can be uploaded to a
Web server, or packaged in a self-extracting EXE file, so it can be e-mailed to a
friend or relative (Photo Explorer is not needed by the recipient).
• Click the Screen Saver button to use your slideshow as a screen saver.
The screen saver that you create is linked to the files you selected to make it. Mov-
ing or deleting these files breaks the links, so that the screen saver will not function
properly.
