Download JAlbum 7.0.3

Version 7.0.3 of JAlbum was released yesterday. With this program you can easily generate and edit professional looking photo albums on the Internet. In a clear interface, photos can be easily edited, the order can be adjusted, the appearance of the web page can be determined and the built-in ftp client can upload the result to a home page. The software is developed in Java and is therefore available for a large number of different operating systems. The changelog for this release shows the following changes:

changes

• JAlbum now has tree image scaling methods. The classic low and high quality scaling and the scaling method introduced in JAlbum 7 (labeled “medium”)
• Bundled skin BluPlusPlus updated to v4
• Bundled skin Chameleon updated to v4.0.2
• Now uses backspace to delete files on Mac instead of delete key
• Settings window is again always on top of main window (previous behavior sometimes prevented drag and drop on settings window)
• Nicer looking splash screen 🙂
• Again does never grab more than 512MB RAM (JAlbum 7.0 was allowed to grab 1GB)
