But I found another way to do the same thing with my laptop. Every picture on my hard drive shuffles, fades and appears for about 5 seconds each. The slide show starts after a period of idle time.
Go to your CONTROL PANEL
Click APPEARANCE & THEMES
Then DISPLAY
Then SCREEN SAVER
Under Screen Saver click on the other SCREEN SAVER
Under that click MY PICTURE SLIDE SHOW
Go through the rest of the buttons WAIT 5 (seconds)
Go into MY PICTURES SCREEN SAVER OPTIONS
You want it to fill the screen LARGER 100%
Check box USE TRANSITION
Check box ALLOW SCROLLING
Fill in the other boxes and SAVE!
I hope that satisfies your need, if Santa doesn't bring you a digital picture frame!

Good Idea. I have my pictures saved for different times of year....for examply...holiday pics. So I can select christmas and it will show all those for the past few years.

Thanks!
I have an old Laptop I been thinking about doing this. I going to remove the LCD and mount it on the Bottom so when it hang on the wall the keyboard is toward the wall and the LCD face out. May make a wood frame to go around it. I just need to lengthen the cable from the motherboard to the LCD.

Hi Leesa, Maybe, just maybe, the problem is progressive format of JPEG. Please reconvert them by the following steps: 1) Downald and install Photoshop (just install by trial) 2) Open your photos that can not read on the digital photo frame 3) File -> Save for Webs & Devieces 4) There is an option "Progressive". DO NOT tick it, and save. 5) Try them again. Please give me some feedback, this works or not. I've found several uses have the same problems. Thank you!

Yup
I got 216 pictures in my slideshow folder
( I just checked the 'Properties')
Most of them are pictures I tweaked in Paint Shop Pro from the net like http://us.f6.yahoofs.com/blog/46e8d8e3zb52b606a/8/__hr_/b00b.jpg?mgoEOVHBchDlGcYZ which is made from the avatar of one of my contacts here in YahooAnswers

Thanks for the infomation. I have mine set for something like that but I didn't know I could select individual pictures for the slide show. Mine just goes through my photos randomly. I will try this.
