I really like the idea of using Comic Life in the classroom. Students LOVE making comics, especially my own kids, and I think it can be modified and expanded limited only by students imagination. Using this software, I made a poster based on my family vacation to Arizona and California over Christmas and New Years 2007-08. This same type of format can be used to display much more serious themes; for example literature, social crisis, math concepts... anything that can be grouped together and given text to enforce an idea or thought. I love the idea of this software. Personally, I plan to use it to create a postcard to send to my family and friends announcing our new address as we just bought a new home!! All I need to do is snap a few photos, add some text, print them out and send them off!

That's a lovely slide show, Nicole. I love your ideas for using Flickr Slidr slide shows with your students. It's an easy process to set up a slide show, and they can be used in class as well as for review at home.
Postcard... Awesome...
I can envision that working really well and looking wary professional.
Gread IDEA!
