California
2006: Truth V
Please read the instructions on this page carefully before you attempt to download the files.
The preferred format for download and viewing of this slideshow is the EXE Slideshow File for PCs linked below. This format allows a full screen version of the show and therefore it can be viewed as it was created. You may be cued to download a free Photodex Viewer in order to make the slideshow run on your computer. Photodex is a reputable software company.
The EXE slideshow on this page was created to be viewed on a screen set to 1024 X 768. Failure to watch it in this resolution will mean that the pictures and words may run off your computer screen. Basically, it will look like a dog's breakfast. There are easy instructions at the bottom of this page for changing your screen resolution.
For those on Macs who are unable to open EXE files, I have created an MPEG version of the slideshow file. Unfortunately, the image size in this delivery is quite small. To view the show with the largest images possible, resize your desktop to 800 X 600.
For either file, please do not stream - download the files and save them to your system.

When you have finished viewing the show, if you wish you can reset your previous preferences in the exact same way.
The 1024 X 768 screen size required for viewing this slideshow is different than the other, older slideshows on this website, which were created to be viewed in 800 X 600. However, technology gallops along, and big screens are the new thing, so this and future shows will be created for larger screens.
