Re: Recommendation Wanted for Simple Graphics Ediitor

look at Microsoft Photo Story 3  for this.  It is free and I think does 
everything except burn the DVD.

And it can burn the DVD with a plug in you can buy for it -- or else just 
save it's output to a movie file and burn it to DVD with Nero or something

like that.
