Is there a way to add more than one image at a time to a slideshow? I'm finding this process a little bit cumbersome. Here's my issue...I load what I think will be a good amount of images for the slideshow...add the music..then do custom timing. I end up needing more images than I thought I would. At that point the only way I can figure out to add images to the slideshow is one at a time using "add new photo". Is there another option?

Also, when doing custom timing....does that timing save to that song and load everytime I open it or is it just saved for that one show using that song? Is there a way to take the timing I've put to a song and save it as a template so I can make other slideshows using it without having to re-record the timing?

Sorry if these are simple questions that have been answered, but I've searched the board and the tutorials and can't seem to find the answers. Thanks so much.

I can answer the second question, and I suspect that will help answer the first question.

Yes! you can save timings in the custom timing panel. I don't have the screen in front of me, but I think there's a "+" button or something? Have a poke around. It's definitely there somewhere.

The way I like to work this is to have a library of timing templates with different photo counts, and then when I'm picking the best photos from a wedding (or whatever) to put into a slideshow, I pick a number of photos that matches the song and/or timing template I want to use.

To go back and add new images ... I'm not totally sure how this works with timing templates, but regardless of that, this feature is a little "clunky", I agree. Then again, if you're well prepared with timing templates and a selection of photos, you won't need to use it ...
