Imagination is a lightweight and simple DVD slide show maker
written in C language and built with the GTK+2 toolkit. I noticed
a lack on the Linux platform of a user-friendly DVD slide show
maker, so I started developing Imagination. True, there are some
other GUIs which do the job, but they usually require a lot of
dependencies to be installed first. Imagination has been designed
from the ground up to be fast, light and easy-to-use. It requires
the ffmpeg encoder ONLY to produce the movie file - to be burned
to DVD then with another application. Yes you don't need any
other third-party software, I like the KISS principle :)

Imagination at present features 26 transitions effects developed
as plugins loaded at startup. Exporting of the slideshow as FLV
format is supported. No sound and Ken Burns effects yet but they
are planned in the next release.
