Web Album Wizard is an easy to use, step-by-step application that allows users to put their digital photographs on the internet in neatly arranged "thumbnail gallery" format with a minimum of fuss. Web Album Wizard includes three different layout and captioning options and requires no knowledge of HTML to use. If you can upload a folder to your ISP or hosting service using your FTP software, then you have all of the knowledge you need to use Web Album Wizard.
Demo Limitations
This registerable demonstration version of Web Album Wizard will insert a "Demo" thumbnail for every other image cataloged. Upon purchase of a license you will be issued a code which will remove this limitation.
Requirements
An Apple Macintosh Computer running Mac OS 8.1 through 9.1, QuickTime 3 or a full installation of QuickTime 4.x, 5 Mb of available memory (RAM), JPEG, GIF or PNG images and an ISP or web hosting service for online use. A Carbon version is also available for use with OS X.
Using Web Album Wizard
To use Web Album Wizard, launch the application by double-clicking its icon, or by dropping a folder full of JPEG/GIF/PNG images on its icon in the Finder. The first time that you use the application, click on the "Change Preferences…" button in the startup window (after clicking the "Try It!" button if you have not yet purchased a license) to make sure that all of your information has been properly entered. Once your preferences have been saved, simply follow the instructions provided by the wizard - it's that easy!
