Create Professional Looking Slideshows with PhotoSnack

Dwayne Hogan
I have found a very slick tool to create slideshows from your photos. It is at PhotoSnack.com. They allow you create professional-looking slideshows that can be embedded on your website. Currently, they have a free version, and a paid version. The paid version allows you to remove the PhotoSnack watermark from the slideshow.

PhotoSnack contains several templates for your slideshow. The whole process of creating a slideshow is very intuitive. The slideshows can embedded as flash videos on your website, just like it was a YouTube video. The embedded flash functionality will allow the number of people who see your slideshow to grow virally.

PhotoShack is also a great solution for photographers and designers to promote the work they have performed. They can just create a slideshow of their work, and post the slideshow to forums, other websites, or even their own website. They could even include their logo.

PhotoSnack comes with five templates you can choose from. After choosing your template, you can then customize the template with a variety of options. Those options include: change the background color, change the slide show speed, change the size, and change the slideshow navigation controls.

To create your first slideshow, go to PhotoSnack.com and click on the "Make a Slideshow" link. Next, choose your template. Some of the templates that you can use include Polaroid Default, Simple Fade, Polaroid Vectorial, Stack Album, and Simple Grid. Once you have chosen your template, the next step will be to upload the pictures that you want to include in the slideshow. Once all of your pictures are uploaded, you can edit the slideshow's navigation controls, size, and image options.

When your slideshow is complete, PhotoSnack will give you link for your slideshow that you can post in places like your Facebook or Myspace account, or on forums. The will also give you an HTML code that will allow to actually embed the slideshow on a webpage.

PhotoSnack is a very quick, simple, and effect way to create professional-looking slideshows and albums. You could always create slideshows with Flickr or PowerPoint, but I believe that PhotoSnack's will result in a higher quality slideshow.
