Pummelvision will take ALL of your photos from Facebook, Flickr, or Tumblr, and make them into a cool music video. Here's mine.[More:]
Pummelvision was made by one of the guys who created Vimeo.com, and you need a Vimeo or Youtube account for it to output to. Watching other people's movies is not quite as awesome as seeing your own, yet I've been addicted to them all afternoon on YouTube.
Also, it took almost 2 days for Pummelvision to download all my pics and make this vid, so don't expect instant results. But IMO it's worth it.

Ooh, I'm doing it, but my laptop is old so I fear it will take a week.

Are the pictures put together in the order of your photostream, or are they randomized? It'd be fun to see them in order. Who owns the rights to the video?

They appear to be in order, Kronos.

amro, your computer doesn't matter if your pics are online on Flickr or whatever. Like I said, it does take awhile, though.

I just started mine - 2888 photos... hmmm

That was pretty damn cool. And BoPo, even thought they're not my photos, your video still works because you have a great eye and take fantastic pictures. Mine would be awkward since about half the photos in my flickr are actually sketchbook pages and post-it note doodles.

Ooooh, I'm totally doing this as part of a christmas present for my dad. I scanned all his old photos that got left at my mom's house when they got divorced. He hasn't seen any of them since I was about 8 years old!

Here's mine. Only 34 seconds long, I need to upload more photos!

Here's mine! Yay! My dad is going to love this.

Ow, my eyes. I can't see fast enough for this.

really cool BoPo; I love the timing - one observation, cos I didn't check; if you have the option to pick a piece of music, tho the track you use is definitely fun, I might also suggest something 50's/vintagey/rockabilly-themed to fit the overwhelming tone of your photostream. There's so much Southern-themed nostalgia in there, especially with the old cars & neon signs and soforth that it would just really groove.

Or maybe just be very cliche / over-the-top. I dunno.

lfr, the music is the same on every video. You're right, though, that that kind of music would fit my pics well.

amro and Stew, yours are so cool!! Stewriffic, what a GREAT idea to make that video for your dad. He IS going to love it.

Here's mine: it's 4:34.

And mine at 50 seconds long. It turned out better than I had hoped.

Sad that it only uses my public Flickr photos, I've made all of my daily iPhone photos Friends & Family only and I think they'd make a more interesting video.

Okay even without my iPhone shots mine is pretty fun.
