How do you automatically cycle through pictures in power point?

I'm trying to figure out how to have a series of pictures continously cycle
through on a slide. I want the images to all be the same size and in the
same location on the slide and have different one show up every couple of
seconds.
Thanks

Depends on your version of PPT. If you have PPT 2002, 2003, or 2007, here is
how I would set it up:

Drop all the pictures on your slide. Select them all (quickest way is to do
a CTRL-A and then unselect what isn't a picture). Use the alignment tools to
align both center and middle. The tools are on the draw toolbar in 2002 and
2003, on the Home tab under Align in 2007.

While the pictures are selected, give them an entrance animation and an exit
animation. Do this with the Custom Animation task pane. Select all the
animations and set them to happen after previous. Using drag and drop, move
the animations so that one appears as the previous one one disappears.
Select the exit animations and give them all a delay so that you can
actually see the pictures.

Play the slide and see if you get the result you desire. If not post back
for more help.
