January 30 Don does it again!
To create this movie, Don took a series of photos as he added more coins to the design.
In Photo Story, he reduced the display time for each photo down to half-a-second.
Also note that Don now has his own opening and closing graphics - he created these in Paint.NET.
Click the link below and enjoy Don's work of art.
Remember that there are plenty of movies that the webDotWizards have created on Soapbox - just do a search for Rushworth and 50 or 60 will be listed.

webDotWiz will be writing up a few hints on how to use Table of Contents and Ratings in Live Photo Gallery to you can browse through and organise your photos in a slightly different way.
So keep an eye out... (the easiest way, of course, to do that is to sign in to Messenger - as you normally would - then click the button on Messenger to go to your Live Space - the 3rd one - where you'll see the latest entries and photos from all your contacts). January 11 Some valuable hints from Kevin when you're using Windows Live Photo Gallery:
If you want to crop a photo, do that job first before doing the Fix using Auto Adjust.
- When Fixing a photo, try the Auto Adjust option (the top one) first of all and see what happens. Kevin says you'll be more often than not amazed that your photo is improved far better than what you might be able to achieve had you edited it manually.
- Use the Ratings option as another way to look at your photos. Yes, it'll take a bit of time to give your photos a rating (although, of course, you can do a bulk rating and then change them individually).
December 21 Here are some ideas to wiz up your Live Space. We'll try some in the New Year.
