I was looking for some software to create some animated slideshows (ala QT) out of a series of still images. I tried everything I could find at VersionTracker and MacUpdate; heck, I even have LiveSlideshow and never could find anything that felt comfortable or offered all the features I wanted.

Then quite by accident I ran across Still Life from Granted Software. This is listed nowhere on the major Mac software pages, but it beats everything I tried. It is "donationware". The features are:

I am very happy I discovered this app and highly recommend it - I just don't know why it's not better publicized! There really is no web page for it. You can get version 1.2.1 off the Granted Software products page; it's a 376K download.

[Editor's note: This is really an amazing little application. Had I known about it a month or two ago, it would have saved me quite a bit of time on an iMovie project I was working on ... and I have another one coming up where I can put it to the real test, but it looks quite good based on a 10 minute usage session this morning.]
