A new version of JAlbum was released on Wednesday with version number 8.2. This program makes it easy to generate and edit professional looking HTML photo albums. In a well-arranged user interface, photos can be easily adjusted, the order can be changed, the appearance of the web page can be determined and the result can be placed on a web page via the built-in ftp client. Because the software is developed in Java, it is available for a wide range of operating systems. The changelog of this release shows the following changes and improvements:

News and updates

  • Improved plugin architecture. Plugins and skins can now add their own custom UI tab to the tabs of Jalbum’s edit panel.
  • This release includes a JCameraInfo plugin that displays camera metadata in its own tab on Jalbum’s edit panel.
  • The “Smooth” scaling mode is now of even higher quality, (but slower and requires more RAM memory)
  • Jalbum’s text editor plugin that was introduced with Jalbum 8.1 has been improved. It now has a new wizard to create new skins and delete skins. The text editor also has improved variable completion and documentation. It now also recognizes skin variables
  • Redesigned Main settings panel, now featuring album thumbnail, album title and album description. Other settings moved to other tabs and hidden under collapsible panels
  • “Add photos” button added to middle of user interface when Jalbum is just started to help first time users.
  • The starting folder when adding images via the file chooser is now the “My Pictures” folder
  • When previewing albums, Jalbum now adds an info bar to the album hinting that it is just a local preview and that the album needs to be published for others to see. This only affects new users, and can be disabled via a preference.
  • The make album window is redesigned and now has a Publish button in order to stress the need to publish an album when it has been made.
  • Jalbum now has introduced variables to simplify use of GPS information
  • New great looking icons
  • New multilingual installer for Windows version
  • Updated translations, thanks to all translators!
  • Redesigned new album project dialog
  • Easier to understand sign in dialog
  • Preview and Publish buttons in main user interface properly disabled if it is irrelevant to press them

  • Jalbum could overwrite one project with another in some instances
  • Album folders starting with “res”, like “restaurant” for instance would have broken icon references
