Kizoa is a free service available online to create slideshows and edit photos

with fun effects, animations, music and more! No download is necessary.

|1. |Open your Internet browser and type |[pic] |

| |in the following URL: | |

| | | |

|2. |What can you do with Kizoa? See the |[pic] |

| |blue frame with the bulleted | |

| |information. | |

| | | |

| |Click the Join Now button. | |

|3. |Create an account. |[pic] |

|4. |Enter a group name and add e-mail |[pic] |

| |addresses (optional). | |

| |Groups allow you to easily see and | |

| |access photos from family and | |

| |friends. I would suggest using your | |

| |surname. “My family” may be too | |

| |general and your relatives may not | |

| |know whose family it is if they have | |

| |a number of people they share with. | |

| |Adding e-mail addresses will send an | |

| |invite to those people. This is an | |

| |optional step – think carefully who | |

| |you want to have access to your | |

| |pictures. | |

|5. |Before you start this step it is |[pic] |

| |helpful to have all your pictures in | |

| |one folder ready to go. Click on Add| |

| |Photos. | |

|6. |Navigate to the folder where you have|[pic] |

| |your photos. | |

|7. |Hold down the CTRL key and then press|[pic] |

| |A to select all the pictures at once.| |

| |Then click on the OPEN. | |

|8. |This is how your screen will look |[pic] |

| |when you have succesfully uploaded | |

| |the pictures to Kizoa. Choose the | |

| |“Make a slideshow” option. | |

|9. |To add photos to your slideshow, drag|[pic] |

| |& drop them onto the film. | |

| |To take them off the film, press | |

| |delete or drag them off the film. If| |

| |you make a mistake on the order you | |

| |can adjust them by dragging them to a| |

| |new location on the film at any time.| |

| |Remember to leave the first slide for| |

| |a picture and title. | |

|10. |When you are done adding your photos |[pic] |

| |in the order you would like them, | |

| |click on the Transitions tab. | |

|11. |Choose a transition and drag & drop |[pic] |

| |each transition in the little box to | |

| |the right of the photo. | |

| | | |

| |Transitions add different movement | |

| |effects between slides. Remember | |

| |“Less is more.” If you get too many | |

| |different wild transitions people | |

| |will focus more on them than your | |

| |pictures. | |

| | | |

| |The P indicates you have to pay for | |

| |that transition. Avoid those unless | |

| |you want to pay a fee when you go to | |

| |publish your slideshow. | |

|12. |When you are done choosing |[pic] |

| |transitions, click on the Effects | |

| |tab. | |

| |Effects are motions that happen to | |

| |the actual photo; whereas, | |

| |transitions happen as the photos are | |

| |changing. Adding an effect to every | |

| |picture can be too much, too busy. I| |

| |like to add effects to beginning and | |

| |ending pictures or maybe to a photo | |

| |that requires extra special attention| |

| |for some reason. | |

|13. |Drag and drop the effect you want to |[pic] |

| |the actual photo. | |

| | | |

| |Remember to avoid the ones with a P | |

| |in the corner. | |

|14. |After you drop the effect on the |[pic] |

| |photo, this dialog box will open. It| |

| |will show you an example of the | |

| |effect on your photo on the right. | |

| |If you want to keep it, click CREATE | |

| |at the bottom right of the box. | |

| |Otherwise, use the red X to cancel. | |

|15. |When you are finished adding effects,|[pic] |

| |click on the Text tab. | |

| | | |

| |To add animated text, drag & drop | |

| |your chosen text onto the photo. | |

| |Type text into dialog box that opens | |

| |up. | |

|16. |Again too much animation, movement, |[pic] |

| |effects can be distracting. On the | |

| |left side there are categories. I | |

| |like the Classic – Normal Display the| |

| |best. | |

|17. |After you drag and drop the text |[pic] |

| |animation to the picture, this dialog| |

| |box will open. Make your selections. | |

| | | |

| |Type your text, choose your color, | |

| |font, and most important – position. | |

| |By default the position is in the | |

| |middle which is often difficult to | |

| |read. I like to move my text to the | |

| |top or bottom or wherever it works | |

| |best for that particular photo. | |

| | | |

| |Click on Create when you are done | |

| |with your selections. | |

|18. |When you are done adding text to the |[pic] |

| |slides, it is time to add music. | |

| |Click on the Music tab. Music is | |

| |grouped by category on the left. | |

| |Click on the album cover and it will | |

| |play a sample of the music. If you | |

| |want to use the music, drag it to the| |

| |first photo where you want the music | |

| |to begin. | |

|19. |After adding music, click on the |[pic] |

| |Settings tab. This dialog box will | |

| |open on the left side. Give your | |

| |slideshow a title. The rest you can | |

| |leave at the default or adjust to | |

| |your preferences. | |

|20. |Click on Preview to check your show. |[pic] |

| |Make any corrections. When done and | |

| |satisfied, choose the Save option. | |

|21. |You have 3 options. Send e-mail, add|[pic] |

| |it to a blog or wiki (get the embed | |

| |code or URL) or burn it to a DVD. | |

|22. |When you are done, your slideshow is |[pic] |

| |saved in your account and you can go | |

| |back and edit it later. | |

|23. |Congratulations you have finished | |

| |your 1st Kizoa slideshow. See an | |
