Screen capture is telling the computer to save what's being displayed on the screen. If you photo can be displayed on the computer screen, then it can be copied by this technique. The catch is that the resolution of the captured file is always the screen resolution, no more, no less. So the best quality they can obtain is the screen size. If the screen is larger than the picture in size (in pixels) then the photo must be enlarged to fit. So saving the slide show at a reduced resolution can help avoid files usable for printing falling into the wrong hands.
thanks guys.btw eug,no offence taken,but ive really got no idea about this sort of thing.what might be basic to you is new to me,so any other tips or advice would be appreciated.ive got a lot of whale breaches,surfing and wave sequences(anywhere from 10 to 60 shots per seq) that i want to turn into a slideshow,but dont know where to start.
Sorry, I'm just a bit loopy today. The wife had a meeting in Tampa last night and I drove her home. 4 hour drive. Got home at 2:15am. Up 6 hours later to take her to work. Can't keep a cohesive thought, but too awake to nap.
Keeping your images safe is basically impossible unless you lock them away and only show them to people while you are around. One of the many debates around these parts that rears it's head is trying to protect image on a website. The draw back is that for every way there is to protect the image, there are 10 to get around it. Same with DVD slide shows.
It's a balancing act between displaying your work and keeping control of your work.
