Allotments 4 All

Hi.  I've just finshed sorting all my garden photos on photobucket into categories.  Some of you will know that I'm very keen to attract wildlife into my tiny London garden and over the last few years I've taken a few pics.  Well today I discovered that there is a slide show facility so I thought I'd give it a go.  This is my first ever attempt so please don't laugh. Just click on the picture to start the show.  ;D  G x

Thats not bad, do you have windows movie maker? that would let you add effects, and if you then download audacity you can edit music to go with it then host it on youtube which would make it look much better.

download for audacity....

Oh give me a break mate, it took hours of a patient poster's time  (you know who you are Eric) to teach how me to post pictures here! Adding music and youtube?  I don't think so!  ;D

They are great pictures Georgie, you have done a lovely job :D.

Its not easy to do that lot, I managed to get something like that on my photobucket site. But trust me it was more by luck than design :-\.

Doubt wether I could put a slideshow together if I wanted to now :(

Awww, thanks for the encouragement Star.  You know, if I can do it anyone can. It took a bit of guesswork but I got there in the end.  And the beuaty of my silent slide show is you can hum any tune you like rather than having me impose my musical tastes on you.   ;D

PS We had a lucky win eh?  ;)

Georgie, I've just seen your slide show. FAB!!! Many congrats and thanks ever such a lot for sharing 8)

Great, the only way I would ever be able to do a slide show is if son John stood over me and I followed his instructions to the letter!! In fact when he does show me something new I write it down :). So your comment "If I can do it anyone can" just doesn't apply here. I think you should give yourself a pat on the back. I enjoyed it.

That is wonderful, I am in awe, you should be really proud of the show and also of the variety you have attracted, well done, it gave me  a lot of pleasure


Thank you for allowing us to share it.

Thanks Jeannine.  It's getting the wildlife in that matters to me rather than making the films/slideshows but when Mick laid down the gauntlet I thought I'd give it a try.   ;)

I was just thinking who was it who said "Adding music and you tube, I don't think so"

Just great Georgie. Really enjoyed.

Well I drew the line at youtube Lorna so stop encouraging me. ;)  ;D

That is great Mick. I am very envious of you clever people :) Not gardening but my son asked me if I would mind him making a DVD from photos that I have of my late husband. The DVD covers boyhood, army days, our engagement. our wedding, 25th anniversary, 50th anniversary, and finally his funeral with some lovely photos of the horses we had for the funeral. John set it all to the music that we had at Charlies  funeral.  It has similar effects that you have
How wonderful technology is.
