Software Update: jAlbum 12.6

Version 12.6 of jAlbum has been released. This program makes it easy to generate and edit professional looking HTML photo albums. In a clean interface, photos can be easily adjusted, the order can be changed and the appearance of the web page can be determined. If everything is to your liking, the result can be placed on a web page via the built-in ftp client.

Because the software is developed in Java, jAlbum is available for a wide range of operating systems. The Windows version has issues with some versions of java and is therefore bundled with java, resulting in a larger download. Previously there was also a free version, which showed advertisements, but the program is now fully commercial and can be tried for 30 days.

A standard license for version 12 and all updates from the 12 series costs 39 euros. This bundle is temporarily offered with a discount of 10 euros. Other licenses, for commercial use or in conjunction with cloud storage, are also available† If you don’t need these new options or prefer not to show ads with your photos, it’s better to go to version 9 stay. The changelog for this release shows the following changes and improvements:

News and Updates

• Free update for all jAlbum 12 license holders
• Significantly faster image tools (Levels, Gamma, AutoCorrect and Arty)
• Text and Logo image effects now supports tiling. This addition makes it easier to apply subtle watermarks across your whole images in order to protect them from being copied

• Minimal skin updated. Now supports keyboard navigation

bug fixes

• Red Eye filter didn’t work (still doesn’t work in Explore view, but works in final albums and in edit mode)
