So my big caveat with iPhoto is that slideshows put the photo up full screen.
This didn't bother me so much before I started showing my ever improving photographs.
I shoot with a 20D, and use a 20" Dell wide screen, so landscape photos fill the entire screen without a border, and having a photo surrounded by black is really nice sometimes. Even if black doesn't ok that great, if it's going to frame 2 sides it might as well frame the other side, right?
Am I missing an option in iPhoto to keep slide shows at a percentage of the screen (not % of the picture) when displaying them?
Is there other comparable slideshow software that has this ability? Music is sometimes nice, but I rarely use transition effects, and if I do it's always fade through black. Anything that allows for speedier slideshows would be awesome as well, so one can page through them fast when required. I am however aware that flipping through 3754x2586 px photos isn't a relatively fast task to begin with ;-)
Free software would also be dandy. I don't want to invest in a new software package just for this one little caveat
Cheers for any advice or suggestions one might have.
