imovie help
I have iMovie for Mac, and I want to make a video with some still photos (or maybe just one photo) and a song from my old band. Can someone take through it step by step? I can import a photo and the music, but it only plays for about 4 seconds! Thanks.

If you did a montage of pictures of my fellating lover Lenny and set it to the theme from the crying game i would pay you.

Re: imovie help
I'd need to figure out how to do it first!

Re: imovie help
The easiest way to increase the duration of the clip is double-click on the clip in the Project.
The Clip Inspector opens. In the Clip tab type in the minutes and seconds next to "Duration".
For example for 7 minutes and 10 seconds type: 7:10.
Click 'Done'.

Thanks, but when I do that, I get a message that I exceeded the maximum duration. Still photos seem to be limited to a few seconds.The easiest way to increase the duration of the clip is double-click on the clip in the Project.
The Clip Inspector opens. In the Clip tab type in the minutes and seconds next to "Duration".
For example for 7 minutes and 10 seconds type: 7:10.
