Solved Windows Movie Maker 6 (Vista on Win7)

[recycler]

Hi to the forum

I am having a curious occurrence at the moment while trying to compile a slideshow.I am using stills only (no videos).I have a lot of shots taken on different cameras including a Nikon.it is with the photos from the nikon that i am having the problems.I have them saved in my pictures folder like all the others and I can add them to the timeline no problem.it's after this i have the problems.when i save the project (save as) its fine.......until I open it again........white spaces with red X.I browse for files and restore but it happens all over again.curious thing is when i browse for a pic it appears if the curser moves over the blank space on the timeline which I am puzzled by.....normally I find the pic and "add to timeline".is it just me or is there a logical explaination for all this.your help in this matter would (as usual) be invaluable.looking forward to hearing from you.many thanks in advance.

Hi,
You might try changing the file types to png or jpeg using Paint...
Then try those files.

Hi,
Could just be a size difference issue ?
Are they all the same pixel size ?
