Dan,

If Keith is sending out a personal photo album to family and friends, he needs something a bit more browser-neutral than what you are suggesting. He has no control over whether Aunt Bertha is using IE 6 or AOL 4 or Netscale 4.5.

Keith,
Call me crazy, but if you already have MS Office 97 or newer, build the
slide show in MS PowerPoint, and save it as HTML.
Advantages listed below:
* You don't need to buy anything.
* Saving as HTML breaks the document up into individual html files for
faster download.
* The buttons and all that stuff will be built automatically if you choose
the correct options in the save to web process.

If you are using Office 2000 or newer, it will write real, very messy HTML
rather than make a honking big JPEG image of the slide, and run still more
quickly.

Thanks,
Dan Charles
