Web-Junkie · 05-04-2011, 22:29

I've a need for a slideshow program that can do random captions as well as the normal random pictures! Don't want to get into programming or scripting etc!! I've googled this off and on without any success, either I get Javascript or PowerPoint Macros or other coding methods but not an actual program!

I've only used a few over the years, CompuPic Pro being the best one I used but sadly not Windows 7 compatible as it knocks off Aero when in use and does not do random captions

I'm curently using Xnview which is fully Windows 7 compatible but doesn't support random captions. In fact I've not seen this 'feature' on any slideshow program i've come across.

What I'd like to do is setup a game where random pictures are shown with a random caption and when the two match (i.e. picture of an Apple and the caption 'Apple') have someone stop it, like a game of 'snap' but with words/pictures.

Any suggestions? As mentioned I'd like to avoid any programming/scripting as it's going to be used by non-techie people!!
