First, sorry this is a day late. I meant to post this last night and had to fight my daughter for a little computer time... lol! She's just getting too old! :)

OK, as I stated last week I'm on a quest to learn more about the File Browser (or Adobe Bridge if you are in CS2) and today I learned something that I didn't know it could do! :) It can create a slideshow of your images. There are times that I want to browse through my photos, as large as they will show on my screen and see the details of the files, but I don't want to open them all within photoshop. This is an excellent time when using the SLIDESHOW would be helpful.

To use the slideshow, first open the File Browser (Adobe Bridge) and navigate to the files you would like to see (within a certain folder). If you don't select any images here it will do the entire file folder. If you just want a few of these images, just select the ones you want using Shift or Control. Next go to View>Slideshow. This will put your files in a slide show. The spacebar will "play the slideshow" as well as pause them and the arrow keys to the right and left will allow you to flip forward and back through the images. H will show you some more options for running the slideshow as well if you would like to do more within the slideshow feature.

I like it, and I'm going to be using it more! :)
