Hi Doug.. I'm been using Microsoft Movie Maker that came with Win.XP. Also using NCH Swift Sound converter for the Music to a Wave file to insert under the movie line. Its a nice program for fading in and out to..

I’m not sure but i hear that Win 7 can’t run that program?

Another thing you can do is adj. the back ground sound like i did with the music and sound off of the movie clip up and down . nice feature.
The movie has to be broken and insert photos but then have to re-start movie from start again and slide what you don’t want to show back to where you stopped the movie. You can insert photos any time between videos. Try to get the photo re-sized to 480 X640 to load faster…I use IrfanView to do this. Hope this helps you.
I findly got my studio up on the internet now after getting some setting here fixed.

Well, Noel,

If you made any keyboard mistakes, I didn’t hear 'em. Professional?

I liked the rumble of the Sierra.

Sincerely,

Joe Satnik
