Step 1: Install Smilebox- Open the Smilebox application. If you haven't already installed Smilebox,  click here to download the free application to your desktop or laptop.

Step 2: Choose design- View slideshow design options. From the home page, click on "Browse by Format" and select "Slideshows." From here you can search for designs by occasion, or view all of the slideshow designs (the default sorting is by "Most Popular" but can be changed to your preference). Click on a design to see a sample playback. Select your slideshow design. Once you find a slideshow design you like, click "Personalize" to load the design.

Step 3: Personalization-

• Add photos- First, save your Photo in a folder on your computer or on an external storage device. Adding photos to a slideshow design can happen two ways: "auto-fill" will load photos automatically from your photo wall or you can add photos individually. Add and delete slides as needed. We suggest you load them in the order you wish them to appear in the slideshow (you can always move them around later). Click the "Get Photos and Videos" button and select your photo.

• Add a personal message- you can write text to each slide, choose the text color and font.

• Select the music- Click on the radio button next to the selection you wish to use. You can play or stop the music to hear a sample. If you are a Club Smilebox subscriber, you have the option of using your own music or selecting from the Premium Music Catalog by using the "More Music" option.

Step 4: Preview your slideshow, make any changes, then share or print your slideshow!
