Default How to Make Christmas Memory DVD Photo Album with PowerPoint

You must have taken a lot of photos on Christmas! Leave them at random
on your computer? No, you'd be wiser to get these merry memories well
organized. Managing the Christmas photos in polish DVD is a no brainer
so long as you have Microsoft PowerPoint plus an extra conversion app
like Moyea PPT to DVD Burner (http://www.dvd-ppt-slideshow.com/
ppt_to_dvd/ ). PowerPoint has the Photo Album feature that allows you
to add in as many holiday photos as you like and arrange them in
order. The PowerPoint to DVD Burner empowers you to burn the Christmas
digital album to DVD for your easy sharing with family and friends on
home TV.

PowerPoint from Version 2000 to 2007 shares the feature of saving your
photos as an album. Now I would give you a step-by-step guide of
creating an awesome Christmas DVD photo album with PowerPoint 2007.

Step 1: Add photos for the Christmas PowerPoint album

Right-click to create a new PowerPoint file. Rename it as necessary.
On the Insert menu, point to Picture, and then click Photo Album.

Click on the 'File/Disk…' option and locate the photos on your
computer. You can add multiple pictures at one time. It is strongly
recommended that you optimize the pictures in Photoshop/Gimp before
insertion. For example, compress photos of high but unnecessary
resolution at 3 million to a lower resolution at 800x600. This will
help reduce the size of your PowerPoint photo album.


Step 2: Choose an album layout for the Christmas slideshow

a. In the Album Layout section, choose a layout for your holiday
photos on each slide. You can also adjust the sequence of the pictures
with the up and down arrow keys below the Preview pane, rotate the
pictures, or reset the brightness and saturation. A layout preview is
shown on the right side of the dialog box.

b. To change the theme of the current template, click the Browse
button. Locate the template in the 'Choose Design Template box' that
allows you to navigate to the folder where the downloaded templates
are stored. Choose any of the three templates.

c. Next, click on 'Create' button. Done. Your Christmas PowerPoint
photo album is created!


Step 3: Burn the Christmas PowerPoint album to DVD
One more step - To finalize your Christmas memory photo album in DVD.
You know, PowerPoint is not friendly to email or x-platform playback.
Burning your cherished holiday photos to DVD will make it an ease for
distant distribution and perfect playback on any PC, even at a big-
screen TV.

For cheap and cute conversion, you can usePowerPoint to DVD Burner
(http://www.dvd-ppt-slideshow.com/ppt_to_dvd/ ) from Moyea Software.
If you don't bother to trouble, you can make it a regular video, with
screen-recording software like Camstudio which can save the Christmas
video in AVI format. Then burn the video to DVD using Nero/Roxio.

Several Additional Tips:
• Choose different layouts for different pictures. Big landscape
pictures deserve a whole slide, while other pictures may share a
single slide.
• Beautiful PowerPoint templates can make your Christmas photo album
shining.
• Add exact text titles and descriptions, since photos cannot convey
every meaning.
• Take care of the disc which stores your Christmas DVD photo album.
