- The external tool "Apply ordering to subfolders" was broken.
- Some albums could get a broken parent link from the top level instead of no parent link (${parentIndexPage} was incorrectly null instead of missing)
- When moving to a parent folder in a final album, you were incorrectly taken to the first index page instead of the index page linking to the current folder.
- More robust against broken image data structures when figuring out image orientation

Some Features

Easy to use interface
You'll be instantly familiar with jAlbum's explorer-like user interface. Use drag-and drop to add new photos, or sort them. Create folders to better organize your album. Use the right-click menu (context menu) to access the most frequently used functions, like sorting, rotating, editing or choosing as folder thumbnail. Add captions right below the thumbnails.

Edit images
In Edit mode you're able to see the photos in larger size, add captions conveniently and apply various filters to it. Adjust your images with the Crop and Straighten tool, fine tune with Gamma and Level or apply various artistic filters, like Sepia, Pixelate or Invert. You can even add text onto your images, e.g. for the purpose of watermarking. Note, your originals will be never touched, only the downscaled version in the final album.

Customize with skins
Skins are plugins to jAlbum which determine the layout and feature set of the generated albums. Some skins are simple and easy to modify, while others have advanced features, like Google maps integration, video playback or shopping cart integration to name a few. JAlbum comes bundled with some 10 skins, but you can always install new ones from our skins section.Browse jAlbum skins

You can even edit or create new skin templates with jAlbum's built-in editor.
