In three quick steps, FlipAlbum Suite lets you create attractive photo albums that look and behave like real ones. The program automatically generates a thumbnail page, a table of contents, and an index page to keep viewers oriented, even in a large album. You can organize your album with separator pages, bookmarks, or tabs. Adding audio is easy, and the songs play and loop smoothly. You can share your completed album by sending it through e-mail, posting it to a Web page, making a video, and burning it onto a disk. In exchange for ease of use, you give up control over page design: the trial version comes with only one theme. Also, you'd better have a lot of memory--the program consumed between 32MB and 94MB during our multiple tests. Still, anyone who wants to create an attractive photo album to share with family and friends will enjoy FlipAlbum Suite.

Summary
great great product
duckpluck_r
Pros
IT IS SO EASY TO JUST DRAG AND DROP YOUR PHOTO'S. I USED 3000 PHOTOS AND IT CREATED A BEAUTIFUL WORK OF ART EFFORTLESSLY..THUMBS UP
Cons
DONT BELIEVE THE WEB SITE WHEN YOU PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE. FIRST, YOU DONT GET MANY PHOTO ALBUM TEMPLATES BUT THE SITE LEADS YOU TO BELIEVE YOU WILL GET LIKE 300. THE TEMPLATES ARE SEPARATE FOR PURCHASE (QUITE EXPENSIVE TOO I MIGHT ADD). YOU ONLY GET LIKE 5 OR SO. THE BIGGEST MISREPRESENTATION IS THAT CD-SHOPPING CART THAT FOR 100+ BUCKS. IF YOU WANT YOUR CUSTOMERS TO PURCHASE VIA CART DIRECTLY FROM YOUR CREATED CD FROM THE FLIP ALBUM PROGRAM. THAT PROGRAM IS LIKE BUILT IN THE EARLY 90'S. AND IT IS ENGLISH INPUT/OUTPUT ONLY. (THEY DONT TELL YOU THAT) SO IF YOU ARE FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY OTHER THAN AMERICA, YOU ARE STUCK WITH ENGLISH OUTPUT ORDER FORMS ONLY FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS, PERIOD, AND YOU ABSOLUTELY CANNOT USE YOUR LOCAL CURRENCY SYMBOL, AND IT HAS A DEFAULT 0.00 FIELD SO YOU HAVE TO USE $ DECIMAL SYSTEMS. I LIVE AND DO BUSINESS IN JAPAN AND WAS SO DISSAPOINTED BECAUSE THE ALBUM IS SUCH A GREAT PROGRAM FOR THEM TO USE SUCH GARBAGE ATTACHED TO IT. WHEN YOU BUY THE ALBUM IT ASK IF YOU WANT TO INCLUDE THE CD-SHOPPING CART. MY ADVISE IS DONT BUY THE CART. FIND ONE ELSEWHERE BECAUSE IT IS SO GARBAGE AND NOT JUST BECAUSE OF THE LANGUAGE ENGLISH DEFAULT BARRIER. IT JUST NEEDS ADVANCEMENT TO KEEP UP WITH THE TIMES AS WITH 98% OF ALL SOFTWARE IN MY OPINION

Summary
Nice program for creating slide shows for others to view
PicMan
Pros
Nice slide shows for others. Well-done graphics. Nice page-flipping effect. You can reorder the pictures. Picture EXIF information is available. Can play background audio. Picture borders may be used. Can package a picture set for others to view.
Cons
Not so useful for viewing your own picture files. There is no pan and zoom. Picture captioning is crude. To include picture EXIF information, you have to include ALL of it (typically you only want a little bit of it). A picture can have an associated audio file, but it can't play while the picture is being displayed.
Summary
It works great provided you have a fast processor.

Summary
I tried this product a few years ago on my 650MHz Duron, and decided it wasn't worth the effort. Tried it again a few days ago on my P4 and was pleasantly surprised to find that it has improved by leaps & bounds since. It's quite a CPU guzzler, but I guess it takes power to get those pages to flip smoothly.
