Ok..So this might be a very dumb question, but I did a little search and couldn't find anything. I want to start offering a slideshow of engagements to my clients, but I want them to be able to watch it on a TV and not just a computer. Would Show it Web be big enough for a TV? If not, what would work for this? Thanks in advance!!

I was just thinking about this today. I am anxious to see what everyone recommends.

Ya...I tried to use imovie once and it sucked. The images looked like crap, but I could have been doing it all wrong.

Are you on a Mac or a PC? I am on a Mac and use fotomagico and compress to DVD with Toast. Easy to use and with wedding photos put to slideshow I can even add in chapters -- I usually put them at music breaks.

someone mentioned SlideShowPro today to me as well...I have not had a chance to compare it to fotomagico...looks like this one can be added into lightroom too.
i will ask around if anyone I know uses either of them regularly, get the pros&cons.

Sweet...I will check that out as well. I really wish that showit web would work. It seems like it would be really cool.

i know...I also would like to have it "self contained" in studio though...where if someone wanted to buy the slideshow I could burn it for them (like these 2 programs) with the other that you mentioned i think they have to order the slideshow from them and then you have to wait for a check and they take their cut of it (I could be wrong, this is just what was told to me by another photographer today) and I am not into waiting around for checks/going through a middleman.

I still have to investigate all these programs fully though, let me know if anyone uses any of these slideshow programs and loves (or hates) them.
