I just got an epson projector.. and i have a powerbook.

here is what i'm wondering... i'm working at a wedding, where i'd like to constantly update photos from my powerbook and have them projected.

Is there a way to have 'two screens' - one that the projector picks up and one that i can edit without guests seeing. i'm not sure if this makes sense, but any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

emalen

Just use dual display instead of video mirroring. The F7 key is your friend. Make sure you set up the displays to have the menu bar on the internal display so you can do your editing without disrupting the projector video. Of course, this will only work if you are doing the editing in a separate program from whatever you are using to do the presentation.
