Hi all again,
recently i managed with the help of some people here in this forum to install and make alive my old Macintosh Classic.
Now it has System 7.0.1 and 4 MB of RAM.
Im trying to make a photographic exhibition (Im photographer the last 20 years) using this old school machine.
The idea is to scan old b/w negatives at small resolution and make "raster" type of photos from this old era.Then I will put them in the old Classic using a slideshow program,print some big at paper and finally place all these to an exhibition place (Like making a digital photographic exhibition with a delay of 25 years with pictures at least 20 years old)

Now iam experiencing some difficulties practicing all these to an Emulator Mini vMac.

I already have Graphic converter program to my MacBook Pro and convert some .jpg files to old (dot by dot b/w) .mac files.

I also download Kid Pix 2 to my virtual Emulator plus to my real Macintosh Classic.
It seems that Kid Pix 2 slideshow can play (import) only .pict files from the same program only and not converted .Jpg---->.pict files from modern Mac converted with Graphic Converter.Also made this test converting .Jpg photos using CorelDraw 11.No communication.

It seems that all these old time programs (Photoshop 0.63) can read only files produced from their own program and nothing else.
One other idea is to download and did a screensaver program that can play photos from a folder.No luck either.
Is there any way to convert any .jpg photos to something that KId pix or other program can play as slideshow?
Thanks in advance:apple:
