VIEWING
SLIDE SHOWS USING A MODEM
If
you connect to the internet using a 56k modem, you can preview
the slide shows "streaming" in real time, however you
may experience quality problems that people with faster connections
will not have. Modem users may see the presentation freeze occasionally,
audio drop out, or notice that some of the pictures are missing
content. This is unavoidable when internet traffic is heavy, particularly
when many people are connected to your service provider at the
same time. Also, as a result of modem speed limitations, you will
see smaller photographs than viewers who have a higher speed connection
to the internet.
If
you experience problems, you may want to try again at another
time when traffic is lighter. A better option is to download each
entire slideshow and run it from your computer, rather than over
the internet. If you have an older 28k or slower modem you will
need to download rather than preview it anyway. An option for
doing this is presented along with each selection.
Another
advantage of using the downloaded versions is that all have the
larger sized photographic images and the quality is better.
