There are 35+ fades, wipes, dissolves and so on, and while they’re a little basic, the program has enough for most purposes. There are also transition icons in between every image, and you can use these to change the transition type and duration. They’ll appear on the timeline, and can be dragged again to reorder them.Įach timeline thumbnail has its duration clearly visible, and this can be changed to anything from one second to an hour.
Just as you’d expect, you can drag and drop your source images onto the program. Timeline at the bottom of the screen, two audio tracks (music plus narration), assorted effects and transitions library top left, preview window on the other side, it’s all very straightforward. If you’ve ever used a video editor then the PhotoStage interface will feel very familiar.
We politely declined the bundled Google Toolbar, and a few seconds later the program launched.
