Picture not clear

I've created a slide show using movie maker. However, when I view the slide
show, the photos that I've imported is very blurry. But I view those pictures
normally using a photo viewr software, it's okay.

Please help!

Are you talking about viewing it in the preview windows in Movie Maker?
If so this is a low quality rendering of your slideshow and is not what the
finished project will look like.
If you are talking about a finished video being viewed in Media Player then
take a look at the settings you chose when saving the video. DV-AVI is best
when working with video but if the project is all still images DV-AVI tends
to be pixilated, blurry, stretched etc... so in those cases one of the WMV
settings (I always use High Quality NTSC) is better.
Also if you are only working with still images and music you may want to
check out Photo Story 3 as it was more designed for this function and has
far more options and control over transitions.

Wojo,

Thank you for your helpful advise. Yes, I'm talking about viewing it in the
preview windows in Movie Maker. Am I still able to install Photo Story if I'm
running on a pirated Windows XP?

==============================
The download requires validation.

Reporting that you are running pirated
MS software in a Microsoft newsgroup...
is quite courageous. Good luck in prison.

True, but I wasn't trying to run him away.
I just wanted to point out that he was on
thin ice. Microsoft does not take piracy
as a joke.

Running him away wouldn't have been my first choice.
Tracing where he was and letting Microsoft know would be better.
