OP, i d/l'd the camtasia demo and it appears to be un-crippled with a 30-day free trial. wow, you'll be squatin' in cotton. it creates pip, interactive menus, great transitions, flash movies, imports most formats into your project, narration tools, etc. i plan to use it on my current project, my speech therapist's wedding. it's 368 photographs taken by a professional photog, no culls at all.

thanks to dan for the steer (not bovine).

if you'd like to preview its features: http://video.techsmith.com/camtasia/3/ed...=&redirver=

i found a free, open source clone called camstudio, but the caveat is, it don't play nice with chrome or firefox without a work-around that can be found on their site. the next release will address that problem.

here is the current version that is designed around msie: http://sourceforge.net/projects/camstudi...29.exe/download
