The <guilabel>Delay Between Images</guilabel> may be set in millisecond steps. 1500 milliseconds correspond to 1.5 seconds and are a good default value. The best timing depends also a bit on your computer power and the transition effect. Try it out before you show it to your friends!

There are more than a dozen <guilabel>Transition Effects</guilabel> available which you can choose from.
