Introductory Slide Show for Joe’s Memorial (links only)

This page does not embed the slide show, it just provides links for viewing it on a separate page or downloading it. Some web browsers were crashing when trying to go to the combined page (specifically I had trouble with Safari on Intel Macs), so this less-fancy approach is a safer alternative until Apple can fix that.

The first link is to a movie that is half as wide and half as tall as the slide show version I showed at the memorial, and runs at half the frame rate (so the transitions are less smooth). By making those compromises, I was able to cut the file size to one twentieth of what it was! And even so, sitting right in front of your computer, it’s probably about as good a view as most people had at the memorial (and the colors are much richer than on the projection screen).

To download the movie, just right-click (or control-click if you have a one-button mouse) on the following link, and choose to download the linked file. (If you are using Internet Explorer on Windows, the menu option to choose is “Save Target As…”, and if you are using Firefox it is “Save Link As…”):

If you just click on the link (rather than right-clicking or control-clicking) it will take you to a window just showing the movie. At that point you may be able to save it using your “File” menu, but you may need to click the “back“ button and try following the directions above.

People who have fast Internet connections and big screens can also view or download the slideshow at the full resolution for which I designed it using the following link:
