Hi there,

I want to make a slideshow of 20 images and add music.

There will be nothing 'interactive' about it. They just sit there and watch it.

My only other requirement is that the images fade out and in.

Is this best done manually or are there decent free programs to help me?

It would help if the images couldn't be copied from my site in normal ways.

Thanks for any advice.

Try Windows Movie Maker, which comes with Windows system by default. It usually locates under
C:\Program Files\Movie Maker\moviemk.exe
If this one doesn't work, try some other commercial movie making software for more advanced options, for example, I use Wondershare Movie Story to make many video and upload to YouTube
