Creating Slide Shows
In the preceding chapter we successfully transferred photos to Media
Center from a camera. You could just as easily have scanned them in
with a desktop scanner (just use the Scanner and Camera Wizard, as
described in the section “Storing Your Photos”) or downloaded them
from a Web site, and so on.
Now that you have your digital image collection loaded into your Media
Center machine, the next order of business is to explore the interesting
ways Media Center allows you to organize and enjoy those images. In
short, it’s time to get organized.
