    Trouble Making Slideshow

    I've been trying to make a slide show for some time but always get confused.
    Using the wizard I added my images & chose a transitional effect.
    Some of the images look too big even though I sized them all the same.
    Also, I can't seem to find the place (timeline?) where I can change the effect for each individual picture. Also, how can I add music?
    Sorry if I seem like a dummy.
    I'm sure it's easy once I learn & I'm determined to learn this today.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Forget about the music question.
    I asked it before but didn't remember where I put the answer.
    I didn't realize I could find previous posts in this forum.
    I still need answers to the other two questions, though.
    Thanks!

    Which slide show method are you using -- frame based or action script based?

    Action script. It says it's recommended.

    And this is a totally unrelated question but can I convert the flash files to any of these formats to make them compatible with the web software we have:
    asf, avi, mpeg, vob, wmv, mov, 3gp

    -> Double-click on the slide show object. The Content property will allow editing of content, transitions, and sound.

    -> No. Search on the internet for software which does this.

    I'm back again. I can't double click on the slide show images because I can't see them. After I played it in the web browser (which looked fine) all I could see when I closed it was a blank screen with a big X on it.
    I looked under View but that didn't help.
    Sorry if I seem like such a dummy.

    There is no slide show object. Like I said, just a blank screen with a huge X.

    I suspect that is the slide show object. Double-click on it or select it and then press on the Properties icon (looks like an "i").
