Animoto is one of my favorite tools for students to use to create stunning multimedia projects. Last week Animoto announced a partnership with LIFE to bring new collections of imagery to Animoto users. Animoto users can find images from LIFE in the categories of Travel and Animals. LIFE is also using Animoto's technology on their website to create great videos like this one about ducks.
Applications for Education
The partnership between Animoto and LIFE makes great animal and scenery photography available to students. The animal photography could be used by elementary school or middle school students to create presentations for science classes in which they're studying animals.

I have tried to create a slide show on animoto but the photos are taking a very long time to load. Any idea as to why this may be?
Bethany,
My guess is that you're not doing anything wrong. If you're images are large and or you're on a slower Internet connection, it can take a while for images to load. The problem could also be on Animoto's end. It's possible that at the time you were trying to upload they were receiving a lot of upload traffic which will slow things down too.
