    Here's one already made.

    Definition Of Marriage (For Fun)

    Some good lines there for a wedding speech. Bit late for the OP though...

    Open the photos folder and get Windows to scroll through all of them as a slide show. Then prop your phone up in front of the monitor and film it.

    For added anniversary enjoyment, put some music on in the background.

    One word of advice though, just make sure than nothing from your pron folder has made it into the final film.
    i'll do this for the mistress the mother of my children deserves much better

    Don't waste your money on that, go for GIMP. It's very like Photoshop but you can get it legally for the type of price us contractors like. £0.

    To me this sounds like a client using terminology to make a specification, when it's not the best way to do it.

    So lets try again with what you actually need it to do
    i believe the technical term "thingy" adequately described client requirements )

    so i'm trawling through 10 years worth of pictures which i'm gonna pick out a few and put into a chronological order, would like to feed them into a bit of software that sticks on some nice transitions, and i'll overlay a a music score to go along with it, then just save as a .mp4 file that i'll upload to youtube and send to her,

    that can be her gift, might cost me time but not a lot of ££

    Hey,

    10th anniversary coming up later this year and want create a photo slideshow montage thingy to surprise the missus, just wondering what the best bit of software would be for doing this?

    I use windows as opposed to Mac, have a rubbish eye for creative design so wandering if anyone had any recommendations.

    Something that has some nice pre-built features that are easy to apply, obviously i'd prefer not to have to pay for the software so if there are any online tools that would be a bonus

    appreciate any non pee taking responses )
