How do you make an image display for shorter time period in windows movie maker?

Use Windows Movie Maker Live... (free). Microsoft is using Live now for movie editing. Then click on edit, the in the drop down box for duration choose a time.

I uploaded a picture to show you the setting.

Maybe see is Powerpoint coudl export into a clip of some kind you could import into movie maker. Hence put your photo in a PPS and export it to a video of somekind.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
