Can I make a movie with only still photos?

I am trying to put together a slideshow of pictures for my wedding and
thought I should be able to use this software, it is the first time I have
used it so I am very unfamilar with it. Can I make a movie slideshow with
only still photos, or will it not let me do this? And if I can, how do I go
about doing it all. I know you can import photos, I have done that, but I
can't seem to do anything with them. If anyone could help I would appreciate
it VERY much.

==============================
Yes, you can make a movie using still images.
Left click / Drag your imported pictures onto
the timeline. Then you can add titles, effects,
transitions, music...etc.

To save your movie...go to...File / Save Movie
File...or type...Ctrl / P.

Also, you may want to have a look at the free

If you are only going to use still photos why not try using PhotoStory 3.
That is what it is made for.
