Download jAlbum 13.1

Version 13.1 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 therefore the download is 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 13 currently costs 39 euros. Other licenses, for commercial use or in conjunction with cloud storage, are also available available. New in version 13 includes the ability to put together an album with multiple people, photos can be automatically organized based on the EXIF ​​information and there are now multiple levels to undo steps. The complete changelog looks like this:
