This Christmas I created a slideshow at ANIMOTO to send Merry Christmas to the family and friends. I found that Animoto was a good tool to use for this occasion because it renders a nice mix of photos and music. The end result is almost always good.

[Berta]

Really nice, Joao. I am sure your family and friends enjoyed it as much as I did. Cheers, Berta.

(Uhhmmm???? The reply is placed in the wrong post. Anyway ...)

Have a look at the help desk, Gail. We've been talking about this. We didn't find one answer, but a couple of possibilities.

[Gail Poulin]

Okay, this is where I try a few different codes
anywhere java is accepted:

my space code

[Gail Poulin]

I don't have a my space page but followed the embed link, clicked on my space, copied the code and pasted it into the reply box here. Good luck. Let's see if the add image link works out.

For a bit of background, the Animoto was created after I received the photos from my niece who was new to photography. I was pleased by them and wanted to honor her efforts. She authorized their use.

[Simon Pankhurst]

Some beautiful pictures there and a great use of Animoto. Well done.

[Gail Poulin]

Thank you Simon, for your kind words of support.

[Berta]

Really nice, Gail. I loved the pictures, effects and music too. What´s the group name? It sounds familiar but cannot get who they are. Cheers, Berta

[Gail Poulin]

the group is called Bottle of Justus. It's one of the free ones offered by Animoto and the credit plays near the end

[Cheryl Oakes]

Gail, Nice job explaining your choices in Animoto. It is always good when we can be explicit with others as they are learning how to use a new web tool. I love your use of the music too. Cheryl

How easy is Animoto! I just tried it for the first time, and this is what I came up with in about 10 minutes. I took about 15 pictures I have taken this year and school, uploaded them, chose a song, and that was that. Then, I was able to download a new app to my I-Phone to play it.

Here is my quick little video:

I will definitely use this again. Now I just need to think of how I will use it to enhance instruction.
