Thank you Lin, Regards, Bert

Ken, I only get text at http://www.mesasoftware.com/merrychristmas.htm is the link broken or do I need a special program to see it. Regards, Bert

Bernard Thanks for this show, you took some great 3D photo's, I realy enjoyed them. Happy New Year to you. Regards, Bert

Hi Peter, I have been to Bangkok many times, and liked you show very much. As others already said, the opening was great and your use of the different dissolves was nicely done, I would have liked the carrousel dissolves with the people a little slower. I did not understand the Two Worlds, was it new versus old, modern versus traditional, or something else? Thanks for posting it, Bert

Congratulations with this Amazing Show. One thing however, I saw (slide) numbers in the top middle of the screen when I viewed your show, where they ment to be there? I am going to to treat myself and watch all three in sequens now. Thanks for showing us your creations. Bert

Hi Dom, I did miss your excelent web-site, glad your back so fast. All the best, Bert

Thanks Keith, I thought something like that would have been activated by now. But than again I know nothing about computer programming. Bert

Hi All, I have used Dom,s Template of the #3 Album and filled it with 30 pictures. (Thanks Dom, looks great). What I like to do is when the Album closes, that an other slide show starts. In the Template I have opened the project option and under "Advanced" found "Run application after last slide. I have put in that box the name of the EXE slide show that I want to start. ("name slideshow.EXE"). I have also put that EXE in the same folder as where I have put Dom's template for the Album, together with all the numberd pictures for the Album. I can run the Album in preview (have not made an EXE yet) , but it closes after the last picture. How can I make the next show start automaticly? Thanks, Bert

Hi Barry, I second Ron's request, as I find it so much easier to read from pages than from a srceen. Thanks, Bert

Thanks for all your sugestions, I am working in PTE5. Ray and Lin, your method worked, luckely the 400 slides I had added by accident, where added at the end of the side-list and therfore easy to go to. KSF, I did the "Create backup in zip" and have now the PTE slidelist on my hard drive. Conflow, I have seen the "Create template" sign, but I am not that familiar with the templates. I did a search in the forum, but could find no info of the things I can do with it. I went over all the commands in PTE5, and noticed that under project, there is an (Greyed Out) Undo and Redo command. Would they have worked in my case if not greyed out? Thanks again, Bert

Hi All, After I had put 200 slides from all different folders on my computer in the slide list of PTE, I went in a folder in my computer to get one more slide. Instead of clicking "Add selected picture(s) to slide list", I clicked on "Add all pictures to slide list". So the whole folder (400 pictures) was added to the slide list. I know that I should have made my selections in a folder outside of PTE first, but I did'nt. So can I Undo the last action in PTE? An other question is, because I made the slide list from all different folders on my computer, it only exist in PTE. Is there a way to save or copy all the pictures that are in the slide list, in a separate folder on my computer? Thanks, Bert

Thanks Ray, That made me understand what was wrong. I had renamed my pictures according to "The Dom" instructions on his site, and it never asked me if I wanted to replace his files. It said in his instructions to rename my pictures to "Pic01.jpg" etc. I gave it this full name instead of "Pic01". I gues I followed the instructions to the letter. It works now fine. Thanks, Bert

Dom I did your method but only the last 2 pages 30 and 31 of the album showed up. The thing is I have no idea what I do and how to get my pictures in your album. I have downloaded your template 1.1 again. Unziped it to a new folder, loaded my pic01.jpg-pic31.jpg in that folder. Opend PTE5, clicked file-open and double clicked on the the "The dom photo album extended template. The album shows when I click the preview, but not with my pictures but with your colored blanks. How do I get it to show my pictures. Thanks, Bert

Hi, I have downloaded Dom's Template for the Photo Album and extracted it to a folder. In the folder I have downloaded 31 jpg's and renamed them Pic01.jpg till Pic31.jpg. I have put everything from that folder in PTE5 "Slide list". When I do a preview I see my pictures with all kind of fades, wipes etc. Don't see anything like an Album. What do I do wrong? I looked for a tutorial on how to use templates, but could find nothing. (Only how to make them from a show.) Can anyone give me an explanation on how to use Dom's and other peoples templates. Thanks, Bert

Hi JP, and AL I downloaded winrar and could open Keith"s Card. Thanks for the sugestion. Bert

Hi Morasoft, I saw your show “Volcano Teide Part 2” and I think it is a Masterpiece. Very inventive use of the Animation and the way you presented the pictures was imaginative. Thanks for sharing, Bert

Hi All, When I download the link to Keith's Valentine, the file is "Valentine-fromKSF.rar". I get a message that the file can not be opend by windows, and it asked what program I want to use to open it. I chose PTE but it stil won't open. Any sugestions? Thanks, Bert

Hi Lin, I am on the forum a lot as a reader, have not enough knowledge to participate but I have tried most of your tutorials. Thanks for all your work and I hope you recover very soon. Bert

I liked your presentation very much and you have done a great job with the movements within the show. Specialy I liked the way you showed the statues from diverend sides at the same time and that you showed some of the close-ups of the paintings. Thanks for sharing. Regards, Bert

Ron, Thanks for sending me so promptly your excelent tutorial. The instructions with the screenshots make everything very easy to follow. I Hope that you will keep us informed about you other tutorials. Bert

Igor, Thanks, all the shows are very smooth on my computer (at work). NVIDIA Quadro FX1400 Bert

I missed going to your site the last month, thanks for puting it back on. Bert

Igor, In the new version can you make that the buttons are not so "cramped" and the text not cut off in the Project Options Box, when my settings are Large Fonts (120 ppi) in windows XP Home. Thanks, Bert

< Hi, The layout of my "Project Options" box is still the same as it was in the older versions. But it has all the new buttons and it is very "cramped" and some text is cut off. Should it not look the same as the "Project Options" box in the new tutorials? > Igor I have set my text in Windows to 96DPI and as you said, that solved the problem with the "project options" box. Consequently all windows text is smaller now. I like the 120DPI font size because that makes things easier to read for me, (we all getting older). So if it is not to much of a job, can you in the next update make the "Project options" box less cramped, if I use the 120 DPI font size. Thanks, Bert

< Bert, this problem comes when you set "Large fonts" (120 dpi) in Windows. I know about this visual problem and will try to optimize for this mode. Please let me know your version of Windows> Igor, I have checked my Windows XP Home edition settings in the Display properties. I have the following settings: Windows Classic Style, Windows Standard and the font size Normal. This does not seem a big font size as the 2 other Font sizes I can choose from are large and extra large.
