No bad at all, although the ridiculous current low USERS RATING would suggest the opposite.

Can also be used to create personalized screensavers with tons of advanced options offered to users, such as the cool feature to scale images, in order to fit them to screensize, the ability to display videos, animations and webpages in the slideshow final output, as well as the option to set transition speed and the time delay between slides.

Overall, this is an excellent software which is worth dowloading and buying (20 BUCKS is very cheap for what it does), but it's definitely NOT for noobs.

Thanks for all the comments. As BHT underlined while gPhotoShow Pro can create screen savers and slideshow for distribution its strongest features are targeted to the local screen saver usage and other are very specific for users that have huge photo collections.
For example these are some of the key features you will probably not find in similar products:
- Can display an almost unlimited number of photos and other supported files
- User defined filters based on image size, file name, rating and keywords
- Can display custom captions with Exif,IPTC,XMP metadata support
- With the MonitorOnOff PlugIn it is possible to automatically power-off attached monitors or switch-off and resume the system at a specified time of the day.
- With RssFeeds plugin it is possible to display news from RSS feeds and download images from RSS feeds used by most online photo galleries (Flickr, Panoramio, Picasa and much more)
- Full Flickr integration ! The Flickr plugins allows to download public and private photos from Flickr Photostreams, Groups and Sets
- Digital camera RAW files support
- Color Management. gPhotoShow can read and use embedded ICC color profiles and AdobeRGB exif tag

@Frank D gPhotoShow Pro can't be compared to Windows Movie Maker, it is a totally different program. Take a look at the description on our web site.

Not sure why PhotoStory 3 is being mentioned here as it's a far more comprehensive program originally conceived to produce slideshows of true movie-production quality. It's now 13 years old and due to Microsoft's witless early abandonment of further development is firmly rooted in the days of 4:3 CRT TV screens and has never heard of home DVD players. Folks like me who are used to PS3 know all the work-arounds (which is why we think PS3 is the finest example anywhere of this kind of software) including output scripts, wide screen re-setting from the native 4:3 and even the torturous process of actually getting a PS3 slideshow to burn to a blank DVD -- but PS3 is something of an overkill if you want a quick 'n easy slideshow which isn't seeking to provide the finest in Ken Burns motion control (and in PS3, the Ken Burns Effect has never been bettered) or intricate user'chooser management of everything from slide time duration to transition duration.

Today's giveaway -- software I've used before -- is a handy little run-about which works extremely well and is certainly superior to many a higher priced commercial offering of this kind. It's light and quick and easy -- the exact opposite of Microsoft PhotoStory 3.

As for the freeware DVD Slideshow GUI mentioned above, it's a laudable attempt to place a variety of Open Source video / image / audio processing apps under the hood of a straightforward GUI. But the results are still a zillion miles from PhotoStory 3 and really, in the context of today's giveaway, are fairly irrelevant given that gPhotoShow Pro is small program (excluding the GAOTD wrapper) that's easily downloaded, easily installed, and easily put to work within a few moniutes to do the kind of things it was designed for.

Thanks, GAOTD, and thanks to the developer, too: I'd happily recommend this to anyone even if only for a trial run. Like others here though, I am irritated by the 147 down votes it has received (at the time of writing this) from moronic button pushers who continue to wreak havoc with the credibility of GAOTD's voting system. Sadly, asking people *not* to vote if they haven't downloaded, installed, and used the GAOTD software offering has long since proved pointless -- these anonymous non-users of the giveaways just carry on regardless in their own ignorant fashion.
