  2. You could use Toast 6 to burn a VCD or SVCD. You can make the slide show in Motion Pictures, iPhoto, or other application that supports slideshows.

    There are good instructions for this in Toast Help.

    There are two kinds of slide shows. One is where you simply drag the thumbnail photos from the iPhoto library to Toast. Toast will create a slide show without sound where the slides advance every 5 seconds (you can change that in Toast). You also can advance slides (or go backwards) using the chapter skip button on your DVD player's remote control.

    The other slide show is actually a movie. You drag the photos to Motion Pictures (bundled with Toast 6) or iMovie and you can do zooms and pans of each image, plus add a sound track. This has lesser picture quality than the regular slide show.

    One suggestion: If your images are very high resolution, use iPhoto to export them at, say 800 X 600 before dragging to Toast. Toast ultimately will make them 640 X 480. I've read reports from others that when Toast downsamples the very high resolution images they don't look as good as when the images are downsampled first by iPhoto.
