Am disappointed, shocked to notice that the slideshow maker has no features that enable one to edit, choose a font size - a very serious design fault.

It misses some very useful functions that the free Windows Movie Maker has:
- Managing the audio track visually
- Setting and fine-tuning the output video file
- Adding and editing text effects, titles, and end credits

Really, if a self-appointed "PRO" software lags so much behind a simple free tool that was included in a decade-old version of the OS, I won't ever buy it.

My apologies for my 'no' vote. For once, I hadn't noticed the anti-virus instructions before installation. Once I took care of that, all was fine. Thank you very much for this great program!

When I click to set it up, it takes me to the "Congratulations" page, but doesn't actually install anything. Any ideas?

This is fantastic! Very easy to use. I used to pay a yearly fee for Roxio Photo Show, but a lot of the shows I made were not viewable.

Thank you very much. This comes at a bitter sweet time. We recently lost our family dog and my mother asked me to put together a nice slideshow video for her, so I'll be using this software for just that. This is gonna' be a rough one.

Well I guess I miss out on this one. Sent my email address twice and still nothing in my email or spam folders. Was busy today and got here late, it's now almost 11pm and I need some sleep. Hopefully it will be offered again sometime. Good Night All

Whats wrong here. My pc is more then powerful enough to handle this program but its stuck on installing and gives me a not respond. Im running an I7 7700K 32gb ram with 512SSd.

Downloads, installs and activates easily.
Thank you.

Got the activated message but no program was installed!

Yet another good giveaway I cannot use...
Tried three times on two differnet Pc's with practically the same outcome

i just get corrupt file all the time
paused all AV and firewall - i give up

Just installed the program, fixed my resolution for screen size and registered program to pro.

Easy to load pixs, set transitions, and whether or not to fit the screen or show original size.. I fed it over 1200 files, and it never faltered, took 31 min to create the slideshow, worked perfectly too.. Nice to be surprised my the giveaway program, had some great releases to try lately.

Win 7, 32 gig ram, RX580 video, E3-1240 Xeon..

Seems to not be ready for prime time - I added the 212th image (273KB) and got an error report, wanting me to send a 14MB crash dump and other files to the software company. 212 files and it craps out?
WIN10, i7-8750H processor, 16GB....and the software fails. I had hoped it would support all 550 images, but when it quits at 212 images, all sub-1MB in size, it ISN'T READY FOR PRIME TIME.

This is fantastic! Very easy to use. I used to pay a yearly fee for Roxio Photo Show, but a lot of the shows I made were not viewable.

This is a slick and very easy to use program! No problem downloading or activating. This will make a decent slideshow in just a few minutes. Nothing complicated. You only have limited control over transiting the photos, but that's fine with me. There are programs out there that want you select a transition of each picture...That's a lot of work...save that for powerpoint. Yes it goes full screen....This is definitely a keeper!

Is it possible to use this program to install a slideshow to a webpage?

What's the benefits of using Icecream Slideshow Maker Vs. PowerPoint (already installed on my system?

The answer will make me decide to go for Icecram or not!

This is a FUN little Slideshow Maker previously offered on GOTD. I still have it installed on Windows 7. And I am glad to update it today ... and install it in W10 too.

Icecream doesn't have near as many Bells & Whistles as the grand slideshow makers offered by Wondershare, Magix, and the other big developers. But that's the beauty of Icecream -- its elegant & efficient simplicity!

I recommend IceCream Slideshow Maker Pro. It is a little gem. THANK YOU IceCream App Developers.

GOTD STAFF: Many compliments for an outstanding streak of execellent software offerings! It feels like 2012 - 2016 when GOTD rocked daily!

Nice little program, very easy to use. The only problem I had was it was not full screen. It's just like the pictures in the advertisement. Too bad, it was so easy and it even had audio.

Very easy to install, just copy/paste the serial and away you go. Interface is clean and simple, no unnecessary clutter, and there's a nice selection of transitions. I tested it with a bunch of photos and just stuck on the first MP3 that came to hand as a soundtrack, which it faded out nicely at the end, and I was more than happy with the results.

Nice offering, definitely a keeper.

Very nice slideshow maker. Very reasonable price if you wish to purchase it. Love the 'random' selection for the transitions. Easy to just add photos and create slideshow.

Installed and registered without problem. Easy and efective. All help is included inside the window. A keeper !

I had no problem installing this newer version over an older version I had in my laptop. However the Activation to PRO was a bit tricky.
When I first started the program (after installation was completed), I clicked on the "Upgrade to PRO" item one sees at the bottom right, which takes you to Icecream's web page to purchase the PRO product. Instead, one should click on the "Setting" button (at the far bottom right found to the right of the "Help" button); just like it is described in the README.txt file. Once inside the "Settings" popup opens up, one needs to click the "ACTIVATE PRO VERSION" button located at the bottom to be able to enter the activation code found in the README.txt file included within your downloaded GOTD zip file. Doing these steps worked for me.
The program looks very promising and easy to use, but I havn't had the chance to try it out, yet.
Thank you GOTD & IceCream for today's freebie.

Don't click on the pro activation tab you see when the program first opens. Click on the settings and there will be another activate pro. Click on that one and enter the supplied serial number.

I am trying to install the software on my test laptop with windows 2003.
I get an assertion that I copy below.

Installed ok and even stated it was registered, however when I launched it and added more then 10 photos, it asked for me to upgrade to Pro. I just went to settings and added the key that was included in the readme file and it registered.

As for the program, I was looking for something to create time laps. This only has increments down to 1 second so it will not work for me.

Couldn't get it to install. All I get is, "successfully activated"..but there is no program to be found.

I am not interested in slide-shows, but from experience recommend anything from icecream for anyone who is. Other products from icecream that I have work very well, and have given no trouble either in installing or working, unlike many developers they seem to know what they are doing.
