This scripts takes one or several categories and then generates a Microsoft Photostory category. Microsoft Photostory is a free tool that anyone with Windows XP can download <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/photostory/default.mspx." target="_blank">http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/photostory/default.mspx.</a> It generates a very nice slideshow and saves it into a video format.

The script organises the photos by category and generates a header photo for each subcategory. The script takes cares of generating random movements between photos and transitions. I'm very pleased with the result, and it makes it easy to generate a very good looking slideshow on DVD.

The script only requires the cabarc tool (downloadable from MS) at <a href="http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/cab/2.0/w98nt42kmexp/en-us/cabsdk.exe" target="_blank">http://download.microsoft.com/download/platformsdk/cab/2.0/w98nt42kmexp/en-us/cabsdk.exe</a>
