JASC Releases Paint Shop Photo Album 5 Deluxe Edition
Posted by Jason Dunn in "SOFTWARE" @ 01:00 PM
"Jasc Software, Inc. announced today the release of Paint Shop™ Photo Album™ 5 - Deluxe Edition, the newest version of their award-winning digital camera software. Sporting a completely redesigned interface that follows the digital photographer’s workflow, Photo Album 5 puts the tools users need to organize, enhance, share and protect photos at their fingertips. By integrating seamlessly with users’ lifestyles, Photo Album allows them to share their photos using today’s most popular mediums, including e-mail, camera phones, scrapbooks, video CDs and printed pictures. By offering a variety of color, contrast and brightness options as well as tools to enhance photos with text, sound, frames, edges and borders Photo Album allows novices to create beautiful photos with a few mouse clicks."
We posted about this application being in beta a while back, but it's now finished and released to the public. I just finished watching a Flash presentation, and it looks like a solid package. It goes beyond what Picasa offers with the addition of frames, panorama options, calendar creation, and quite a few more things (including a backup to CD option). I particularly like the backup option:
"With just one click, Paint Shop Photo Album 5 protects your digital photos. Its PhotoSafe™ Archiving System automatically tracks photos you’ve backed up on CD, which ones you’ve added to your collection since then, and reminds you when it’s time to backup again."
You can read the rest of the press release.
