I want to make a slideshow that shows photos in random order, but I don't see the option to do it. I only have an option to sort images by name or date or things that do not apply.

Best Answer
There is no preset for random order – but you can switch to random order ("shuffle order") while the slideshow is actually playing:
The settings button is the little cog wheel icon next to the close [X] button:
Clicking the settings button in play mode will open an extended preferences panel, featuring an additional option "Shuffle slide order" in the lower third of the panel:
Checking/unchecking that option will toggle the Shuffle mode.
You can find a detailled description on this page "Change slideshow settings"at support.apple.com – it's for iPhoto 9.5 but should also apply for iPhoto 9.6.
