Alternatively, you can use iMovie '08 as described in a more recent tutorial: http://www.appleology.com/2007/08/08/imovie-08-makes-custom-slideshow-production-easy/ @Sarah: You’ll have to produce a GarageBand mix for that.

There's got to be a better way to get a real quality slide show that can retain that same or similar resolution. I haven't found it yet, but let me know if you do. Resolution for DVD are only 720 lines (or something like that...) slides are much more.... over 2000pixels. At least that is what some of the "professional" advice I got from Apple.

You do not need to apply it to each image manually (which would be totally insane). And then you can use other transitions as well... probably better than iPhoto.
