Pictures can be rotated and comments can be added to each one.  Slide Show also allows you to convert the images into other standard image formats (Bitmap or GIF)  for use in word processing, paint programs, etc.

The entire Slide Show program is contained on the floppy disk with your images.  The program can be run from the floppy disk or copied and run from the hard drive.  To run Slide Show from the hard drive, copy everything on the disk to a directory on your hard drive.
