more effects and props

Is there any way to add animation to a slideshow? Also, is there anywhere I can go and download more props. I like the feature of being able to add them but the selection they provide is pretty slim. Thanks

i know what you mean about more props, i've written to ulead to find out if there is a way to import annimations but have not recieved an answer, photshow deluxe has some cool things but u cannot burn to dvd, have you been able to import any clipart into your software other then reg pics, i've tried but that doesn't seem to work either

I called ULead and talked to a Tech on this. Right now, there is no way to add a prop such that it appears in the menu for you to select (we tried renaming files and making new menus - no go). The Tech was able (after about 15 minutes worth of monkeying) to figure out how to bring in a new prop indirectly. First, he created a picture with a transparent background in Photo Impact and saved it as a .GIF. He then pasted this photo onto the slide by using the "Decorate with more photos" button on the Decorate page. Since it had a transparent background, it worked like a prop. I haven't had the time to find any images with transparent backgrounds to test this out. Good luck.
