iPhoto Slideshow Effects

[wetcat007]

So I bought a mac a while back and have been playing with it. One thing I really like the some of the transitions the iPhoto is able to produce, (the page flip in particular). Picasa2 from google is very similar photo managment software that I found for PC. What I'm really looking for is something with some of those cool transitions and the slow, slight zoom effect on each photo.

Microsoft has Photostory 3, which I must say is sad and pathetic on so many levels in comparision. Picasa does better than iPhoto in a lot of ways, but doesn't have the fancy slideshow design of iPhoto.

Any suggestions on software or picasa plugins?

Thanks,
Mark

I looked that up, yes that is what I'm talking about, nice screensaver too. I found the official term for it I guess "Ken Burns Effect" according to wikipedia. But the page turning effect on iPhoto any idea where I could find such a way to display slideshows with that?
