Photo Story 3 for Windows is a photo sharing application that allows users to use their digital photos to create a presentation or a photo story in the form of a video. Users can choose which pictures to use, transitions, effects, and the background music. The video is saved in wmv format and can be played using Windows Media Player.

The program guides the user through the steps in creating a Photo Story. Users can also edit photos using the program. There are simple tools for rotating images, removing borders, and many more. Up to 200 photos can be imported at one time. The arrangement of the photos can be edited in the storyboard.
