Hi,

Does anybody knows how to create a slide show in photoshop CS5 on windows computer?

Thanx

There are several possibilities it depends on how the show will be presented.

For the web, the output module of Bridge will do it.

Otherwise probably the best way is to use the facility offered by free software such as Picasa.

Agree with Josh, use Output Module in Bridge (CS4 and CS5 only) and you can very easily and quickly create a slideshow. Loads of options in a very easy to understand format and in an order.

Have fun!

Right.  I produce a PDF slide show using Output.  From Bridge Output settings I usually use are:  PDF, custom template; Document custom preset and size, 8 width, 10 height (inches), quality 72 ppi; Layout: 1 column and 1 row, default margins, others unchecked; Filename for overlay; Header and Footer to suit (sometimes I'll use these, sometimes not); Playback: Open in full screen and advance every 'n' seconds (interval of your choice) and Loop after last page.

IMO the Output Module in Bridge offers a limited number of options. If you can program some you have endless possibilities using Photoshop Scripting.   I have an old 20th century programming background, don't have good understanding of object programming still I was able to hack one of Jeffrey Tranberry Photoshop scripts created for the Simpleviewer Web Gallery Flash Viewer. I Changed features and Added features and options I wanted for example Meta-data support for copyright notice, titles, description, Links, e-Mail to, EXIF etc.  It was also easy to adapt this script to generate other Flash Web Galleries like WS-Slideshow. 

Examples:

Ws-Slideshow the way I generate these I hide the Ws-Slideshow menu bar you need to hover the mouse cursor over the bottom of the image window to be able to see and use it. This Ws-Slideshow gallery contains nine albums http://www.mouseprints.net/albums/
