    There Photos forum is here

     

    Photos for Mac

     

    But as far as I know there is no way to add themes to it (just as there was no way to do so in iPhoto.) You can, of course, continue to use iPhoto if your version is up-to-date.

     

    Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:

     

    iMovie is on every Mac sold.

     

    Others, in order of price:

     

    PhotoToMovie  $49.95

    PulpMotion  $129

    FotoMagico $99

    Final Cut Pro X $299

     

    It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro X is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for.
