If you use Photodex ProShow Gold or ProShow Producer to createyour presentations and slideshows, adding the ProShow StylePackVolume 1 plug-in will give you even more creative choices.

As a plug-in, ProShow StylePack works from within the Photodexprograms, installing 15 new slide style effects into ProShow Gold, and25 into Producer. To usethe new styles, first create your slide. Then, select Styles, wherethe new ones are integrated into the same familiar workspace as thestyles that come with the program. Depending on the style youselect, you'll have a number of options.

We found the ProShow Styles easy to use and quite effective. Forinstance, the Collage Scatter displays a jumble of photos thatscatter about the screen, until one at a time, it reveals thepictures. Or, with the Picture Line, up to 10 pictures hang from ascrolling laundry line. Not all the styles are animated. Some, likethe Infrared Camera (which simulates the high contrast look ofinfrared photography), apply a special effect to your slide. Or,like Art Gallery (which simply displays your picture in a typicalgallery picture frame), they might provide an attractivesetting.

If you use either ProShow Gold or Producer, ProShow StylePack 1will add a bit of reasonably priced pizzazz to your slideshows.
