There's no shortage of ways to obtain digital images (download, scan, digital camera, create them yourself), but finding an effective way to share them with others is often more difficult. Unless you use TurboDemo Album, that is, which is one of the most versatile slideshow creation tools around.
At its simplest you can just import your choice of images, drag and drop them into the required order, then export them as an executable (EXE) file to pass on to others, or a Flash (SWF) file for use on the web.
Double-click on a particular image, though, and you can annotate it with a variety of objects: text captions, pointers, rollovers (move the mouse over that region and a caption appears), and more. Each object is highly customisable -- the Balloon has 19 different styles of speech bubble, for instance -- so it's generally easy to get the effect you want.
It's also possible to add your own commentary or soundtrack, either by recording it directly within TurboDemo Album, or by importing a WAV file. Then during the Export process you get to customise items like the demo title, the style of Control Panel that will be used to step through the slides, add version information, and much more.
You could just use TurboDemo Album to create slideshows of your digital photos, then, but that's just the start. The program can also build basic presentations, software demos and so on, for use on the desktop or the web. If you have a need for anything like this then it's well worth a look.
