Although extremely easy to use, the features of the free version of PhotoShow are fairly limited in scope. However, this version does provide a nice means to let users try out the application before purchasing, and it serves as a pretty good tool for creating slideshows with limited customization.
Both the free and subscription versions allow you to upload your photos several ways. You can either add your images directly from your computer by browsing through your PC's directory and selecting the ones you wish to use, or you can upload photos from several online services – Facebook, Shutterfly, Flickr, or Picasa Web Albums. This latter option is particularly nice for those who want to create several shows using the same photos.
Most of the differences between the two versions of the application are related to the design phase of the creation process. Here, the free version allows you to select from eight different slideshow styles, while the subscription package offers over 160 additional themes. Additionally, the subscription package gives you more options for adding music, titles, stickers, and borders.
