[PapaJohn \(MVP\)]

Here's a 50 second sample story clip that shows text animation, using a
black picture and the text/motion features of PS3....

Awesome! I just downloaded PS3 and am in the process of my first one. So
far, not complicated but adding all the text and music seems a little
intimidating. If you have any 'secrets' and 'how tos' that would be great.
Haven't gotten onto your website yet. Do you give tips there?

Thanks A.... yes, the goal of the PS3 section of my website is to help
people 'do amazing things' with it.... especially when it comes to using PS3
and Movie Maker 2 together. This newsgroup and the forum at
windowsphotostory.com include problem solving.

I developed this sample for the weekly newsletter I'm working on.... the
tutorial in it covers the details. My routine for publishing newsletters is
that they go first to subscribers only... but about 6 weeks after issue,
each one gets posted online for open viewing. I have links on my website to
individual issues, and there's a full set of links at
www.windowsmoviemakers.net

Although this newsletter won't be online until October, I'm always around
and will answer any questions...

I'm sure you'll love PS3... lots of luck with it.

Thanks for the info...I've already made 2 stories! Now I'm trying to figure
out how to burn it to a CD. Haven't had much luck. I don't get the
'story'...just the program frame asking if I'd like to add pictures. ??
What am I doing wrong?

When I finally do copy to CD, will I be able to put it in my DVD recorder to
show on TV? Probably not, huh? There's so much to learn...but I'm excited.

To burn it to a disc that plays on your DVD player/TV, you need to use other
software...

Here's a second sample clip made for this newsletter issue... it's a
Photo Story that runs 1:14 and mixes text brought in on still pix with some
added in PS3 itself....
