This is very helpful, Alan.  Now I realize that I had not thought 
this thru sufficiently.  So, a couple of follow-up questions below. 
I will probably want to try both paths, but for now, I'd just like 
to start with the simplest path.

I'll download DVD Slideshow and give it a try. 

Would you please comment a little further about Path 2 as I don't 
really understand what to do get that to work.  I have two fairly 
recent DVD players and neither will display .jpg images burned onto 
a CD.
