Slideshows in JLI

Posted by the leapfrog Sat, 13 Mar 2010 23:29:00 GMT

Hi folks!

We’re experimenting with a new feature, slideshows, which is online now. More details coming soon, but if you’d like to try it out, log in and

  • upload any PowerPoint presentation, or set of images, as a single PDF. (In most versions of PowerPoint, you can export any presentation as a PDF using ‘Export’ from the file menu; if you run into any trouble, Microsoft’s instructions are here).
  • In any of your spaces, click the ‘Images’ tab and click ‘My Slideshows’. Your slideshow should be there, and you can drag and drop it onto any image or video frame.
  • You can use the slideshow controls to autoplay your show for others in your space, or advance and rewind manually.

As always, drop us a line with any comments! And we’ll post some more details soon as we keep testing the feature.
