Nah. Believe it or not I organize and scale many of my pictures with, gasp, MS-Word. A pretty old version of it to boot. PowerPoint works, too.

You make a 500 jpeg slideshow of all different jpegs in a few seconds,
that streams over the net in real time, or saves as an avi movie, with MS-Word?


Not 500 pics, maybe a dozen or so. Never needed more than that. And no movie, no need for that either. More along the lines of "Look, guys, this is how it showed on the scope, then we did this, that and the other thing and the next three pics show a much cleaner signal". I tend to keep things simple :-)
