OK, so I volunteered to make a slideshow of A Day at the Races, which is a "class" that is run by some of the instructors here on learning how to bet strategically. Only problem was I couldn't let on to anybody that I was doing it, ergo no flash in the dark room. Also, hard to get so many pictures in just 10 races, but enough with the excuses,... here is the video.

A Day at the Races

The guy loves it, but I can't wait for next year 'cause it could be sooooo much better with a little more time and prep.

Very effective. What software did you use to produce it?

One point, you've got loads of shots of the horses and jockeys, but not many of the employees. I'd say to slow down the shots of the employees so everyone can see themselves in the shot, at the moment they're whizzing by a bit quickly!

Thanks. I used ProShow Producer. It's very user friendly and capable of much more than is shown here. I've just barely started to learn it.
