Apply the filter corners with drop shadow to make the animation more esthetic (for example, for a photo in 10 million pixels, enter 150 in ''Rayon de flou'' to get a big enough shadow). Flatten the image and resize them with a few hundred pixels wide (350 for example).
To help you to apply rounded corners to your images, you can view the question ''How to round the corners of my image with The GIMP ?'' of the category ''Image Processing'' of the FAQ.

The option ''Délais entre les images lorsque non spécifié'' lets you choose the time between each image, with a millisecond.
Do not take a too low number because if you do the slideshow will be too visible, it will be flashing. Enter the number eg 7000 for 7 seconds between each image.
