=I= SmartArt Slideshow Picture Frame

Now, there’s no need to choose between brains and beauty.  =IcaruS= brings you both in the elegant, powerful SmartArt Slideshow Picture Frame, perfect for home to share your memories or business to use for advertising.  Thanks to pre-cached graphics, you see sharp, clear pictures as they transition, and the low rendering cost causes no added lag.

You can customise the following features of your SmartArt Slideshow Picture Frame:

There are three styles of the SmartArt, with the differences being in the frame styles and corresponding prices:

• Chelsea, with a selection of wood frame textures
• Sheffield, offers a choice of seven different metal frame textures
• Monaco, offers the same frame textures as the Sheffield, but the frame is beveled
