What is PhotoStory?** PhotoStory is a free Windows program from Microsoft which allows you create a photo "slideshow" of images, text, and music. The end product is very similar to a PowerPoint presentation (although you don't need to click from slide to slide.) Although, we think PhotoStory is actually much easier to use than PowerPoint.
