Making a Flash slideshow

[Peyton]

Hello everyone, I really need help.

I have flash 7 and need to make a flash slideshow for a website but honestly haven't tinkered with flash to understand it, or where to begin.

Any thoughts?

There are about 90 photos, very simple page, no music necessary but would be nice.

THANKS!

does it need to be flash? it'd be easy to do with dhtml.
look here http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/index.html

do you want it to be interactive or just play? those would be two very different animals.

thanks SO much. It doesn't have to be flash but I thought since I bought the software and never used it I might as well. It doesn't have to be interactive. I would like it to loop and that's all.

You could also use a Flash component like SlideShowPro from Todd Dominey. I have had some experience with his slide show component, typically I use it for clients with smaller budgets, works great and very affordable, $20!

If you have keynote (at least in version 2) you can export any keynote as a flash slide show. Very quick and easy. Just use the images you want as full page slides.
