Here is what we have found out since our upgrade.
The new Movie Maker does not support narration and is difficult to work wit=
h regarding sound files in general. The 2.6 version which is recommended to=
work with Win7 will lose files in an project and has other problems that m=
ake it unstable.
The newest version of Photostory does not work in Win 7. Some say it will, =
but we get errors and it won't start up. Digital Image 2006 has a version =
of Photostory that supposedly works, but is it only a 90 day trial, then co=
sts$ and it sounds like they will not support it much longer.
We are piloting PhotoStage and think is probably our best solution right no=
w. It is not free, but the cost is not too bad.
We know about several online free websites, but we want software that is v=
ery versatile and don't want to students to need to create online accounts.
Thanks,
