[ale] Resources for making family oriented slide shows

[Josh Freeman]

I'm in the process of trying this myself. As soon as I come up with
something, I'll let you know. have you tried anything so far in that
realm? have you had any successes / failures that would help me on the
way. i was hoping to work on it in the next week or sok, and if I can
make it work,I'll be sure to tell you how.
