For this assignment I used a website called PictureTrail. With PictureTrail, you can upload pictures into a slideshow from your computer. I have heard from a lot of my friends who use this source that it is simple and can be so much fun! I tend to be one of those people who takes my camera with me everywhere I go. I just got my computer for graduation last year and I cannot tell you how many pictures I have saved on it! With PictureTrail, I was able to post some of my favorite pictures into a slideshow. I loved this site because you could edit the background, add special effects, and change the font from a list of choices. Although I was limited on what backgrounds, special effects and fonts I could use, I think that there is at least something that everyone could find that works for them. My favorite part about this site is that I could upload all of my pictures at once! It saved me so much time! If you are going to try out PictureTrail, I would reccomend giving yourself time. It is not something that takes a lot of time to upload or anything like that, but there are a lot of different things to look at. When you are deciding on backgrounds, font, etc. the website will automatically update your slideshow and give you a preview. You can change all of these things at any time and they are all in the same place which makes it easy. There are a lot, however, so make sure you have time to look through them in order to decide what you truely like best!
I have not used this website before, but I do think that now that I know about it and have tried it on my own, that I would use it again. I reccomend it to anyone who wants a fun and exciting way to show off all of their pictures!

Nice Job I love the background and set up of your slide show. I like all the different pictures you had posted!
ReplyDeleteVery good job on the slide show! I had never heard of Picture Trail, but is definitely something I want to check out. I also love taking pictures and am always looking for a new way to share them.
ReplyDeleteI used the same sight and found it easy to use. I agree there is a lot to choose from so allow yourself the time. Good job. I like the set up you chose.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on this photoshare! Yours is now the third one I've seen using this application and you've all said how easy it is! I'm curious to know why your were limited in the backgrounds, fonts, etc,. Was that because of the program, or something with your computer?
ReplyDeleteI like how your pictures are bigger as it scrolls through them. I also like how you chose to have them in a strip on the side too! Your pictures are great - you can tell you really love kids!
