What great things have you done lately? We were gone for two weeks, on a summer break to charge our batteries. Everybody says they had a great time and now we are ready to make interesting things for you, so keep close.

Time to impress you with a new collection of photos, this time from a single artist, Andrew (aka Cuba Gallery). I found him on Flickr looking for different themes and I have to say that his work is amazing. Take a look!

What a great source of inspiration, don’t you think?

The beautiful images were taken by Lina Aiduke, a lady interested in architecture, interior design and recently in photography. Check her blog or her Flickr photostream if you’d like to see more of her work.

The photo slide show was made with PhotoSnack, as all the slideshows featured on this blog. I used Pixelate wipe, a premium template, size 500 x 400px.

Hope you are because I was very happy when I picked the images, so light and lovely. Just like a perfect summer afternoon.

Template picked: Vertical Flip (this is a premium template), same size as ever 500 x  400px because this is the one that fits the blog perfectly.

Image credits are inside the photo slide show. Template used: Thumbnail wall (this is a premium template).

Wish you a fresh day and a gorgeous summer!

We’re doing great here at the office and I wanted to surprise you this Tuesday with a gorgeous portfolio.

When we created PhotoSnack we also wanted to please and satisfy the needs of the professional photographer, that creative person that makes amazing pictures and wants to show his work in a beautiful elegant way. So I thought why not make a photo slide show like he would do it, a portfolio. Or it could be a wedding photo album that the newly weds can share with their family and friends.

These lovely photos were made by Vania and Christine from Simply Bloom Photography, dear collaborators that gave us permission to use their photos in our examples (see on this page how you can use PhotoSnack). Their work is fairytale-like, dramatic and a perfect example of timeless beauty (as people say and I totally agree). I’ll let you enjoy the slideshow and recommend you to visit their blog to see more mesmerizing wedding and engagement photos.

I hope you like what picked for today. See you soon!

Enjoying the summer? Thinking about this season came the idea of creating the photo slideshow for today: long exposure photos. Water, gorgeous landscapes, dreamy mood … this is what I saw in this pictures.

Be prepared to be swept away!

I used Classic thumb-view (premium template) because it’s a simple template that I thought matches the pictures perfectly. The size is 500 x 400 px, but I recommend you to view the slide show in full screen, you’ll see why.

Now I didn’t pick a theme as I usually do, but a photographer that draw my attention. I found Dan (aka Durango99) this morning on Flickr and I just had to share his amazing photos with you. The colors are incredible and they create such a great warm feeling … Mesmerizing, that’s the word to describe what came out of his hands.

If you’d like to see more photos of Dan click here. Believe me you’ll wander around for a while … I sure got lost browsing his images.

I used Simple fade as my template (it is a premium template) and 500 x 400px size, perfect for this blog.

Enjoy!

I just love this season, don’t you? So much color, the days are longer so you can do a lot of things and it’s the time for great holidays in beautiful places.

I used PhotoSnack to create this slide show, picked Scale Chain as my template and 500 x 400 px size. You can see where I found the photos from the links inside the slideshow.

Hope you’ll like it and hope it will bring a little smile on your face today.

Enjoy the weather and have fun!

I hope you will find the chosen theme interesting.

You should view this photo slideshow in full-screen, it looks great. I used Simple fade (premium template) and the same size I made the others slideshows (500x400px).

For image credits, check out the links posted inside the slideshow. Did you know that you can add links for each uploaded photo? See how you can do that here.

Till next time wish you a lovely time, enjoy the summer!

Thanks for the feedback regarding our redesign process; we were happy to read your comments.

Here I am with another nice photo slideshow made with PhotoSnack. This one was hard to make, believe me. You’ll know why after you view the photos. Hope you will find it as yummy as I did.

Today I used the template called Pan and zoom (paid template), changed the size to fit perfectly my blog 500 x 400px.

When you are making a photo slideshow, you can opt for different sizes, from the smallest (150 x120px) to medium (350 x262px) to the biggest (600 x 475px) to fit a large blog. These are just a few examples, in total there are 11 preset sizes.

If you have any questions regarding how to create a slideshow with PhotoSnack, don’t hesitate to contact us, on this blog, feedback bar, Facebook page or Twitter.
