Using the Photo Channel
You can do any of the following things using the Photo Channel:
•  View your photos as a slide show.
•  Draw on your photos.
•  Save your photos to the Wii System Memory in the console using the   
  Wii Message Board (see page 30).
•  Send your pictures to anyone on your list of Wii Friends.
  Inserting an SD or SDHC Card
Insert an SD Card into the SD Card Slot on the 
front of the console (32 GB maximum size).
NOTE: You can also use miniSD Cards and 
microSD Cards if you have an SD Card adapter, 
which can be found at most retail stores that sell 
SD Cards. See page 22 for more information on 
SD Cards.
  Selecting Your Photo Source
1.  Using the Wii Remote Plus, select the Photo Channel on the Wii Menu. (More 
  than one remote can be used with the Photo Channel at one time.)
2.  Select either Digital Camera/Cell Phone or View Wii Message Board photos to 
  view your photo album.
NOTE: Photos will appear on the Wii Message Board (see pages 32 and 36) only if 
you have posted them there in a previous Photo Channel session.

•  Your photos will appear on the TV screen in the order they were taken. If this data
  is not available with the photo, the date that you update the photo in the Photo
  Channel will be used.
•  Videos will appear as the first frame from the file, with a film
  icon in one corner.
•  If the photo or video is in a format that is not supported by the
  Photo Channel, it will appear as a question mark icon.
  See page 23 for supported formats.
•  If you have a large number of photos, or if they are very large in size, 
  it may take a moment to open them all.
•  The Photo Channel can display a maximum of approximately 1,000 photos. 
  If your SD Card has more than 1,000 photos, remove the card from the Wii console 
  and remove or reorganize your photos in your camera, cell phone, or computer.
