E.M. Free DVD Photo Slideshow allows you to create beautiful slideshows with your photos to later burn them on a DVD.
The program also allows you to publish the slideshow in other formats, but you have to register the full version for this. The program also comes with a sample project for you to see how to create a slidehow and also opens an interactive help file in every step of the process so that you can easily learn how to use it. In the first step, you select the pictures you wish to use, and you can create different scenes with as many pictures as you want. The program also comes with lots of buttons, frames, and images to add to your photos. In the next step, you can select the transition effects, which are divided in three categories (basic, effects, and various), and the time for each of them. To add them, you simply need to drag them to the corresponding image. On the upper right corner there is a small player that allows you to preview all the transition effects. On the next step, you can add music, text, illustrations, effects, and recordings to your slideshow. The program comes with many samples for each category, but you can include your own. Finally, in the last step you can select the format and customize all its options.
In short, E.M. Free DVD Photo Slideshow is a good choice when looking for an application to create slideshows, specially if you are planning to burn it to a DVD, since it is completely free.
