DIY Digital Picture Frame - from a laptop!

[sdewenter]

I would love to make something like this to showcase all photos I have edited.

Let me know if you make one or already have done this.
Thanks,
Susan D

Susan, that it really cool. I have wanted one of those digital frames but could never bring myself to pay so much for one. This is a great idea and we have an old Compaq collecting dust because its so old and too expensive to update. I'll have to fire it up and see how well photos display on it. I really can't remember its been so long.

I made one of these and it's a hit with all of our guests. Here's a write-up I did about it (http://brentevans.blogspot.com/2007/05/converting-old-laptop-into-digital.html) on my blog.

Give it a try - it's worth it and much cheaper then buying one.
