Photo Albums & Slideshows
Display your photos the way you want
ShutterBug's image processing and photo gallery abilities know no
bounds! Use your imagination and create some unique layouts for your
photos or stick with a simple gallery and slideshow presentation. You can
batch resize your photos, choose custom sizes, overlap photos, create auto
collages, add picture frames, drop shadows and watermarks, adjust the
number of thumbnails to display, customize the slideshow settings to your
exact needs, and so much more.
Classy Thumbnail Displays
Your thumbnail pictures can be arranged in photo albums, automatic collages, or
they can float freely on the page, even overlapping one another. You can create
colored or image backgrounds for the album box, insert a graphic for the picture
frame or use the border settings to select from a list of different effects to frame
your thumbnails with. How about adding some inside margins for a matte effect.
You can even add a drop shadow for an elegant look and batch watermark your
photos with one click. There's an option for every flavor of the day!
Easy Thumbnail Sizing
ShutterBug does all the hard work for you, automatically resizing your pictures for
uploading to the web. You can batch resize your thumbnails to have them all set to
the same size or have them display at their different aspect ratios. You can also
center your thumbnails at their various aspect ratios within a picture frame for a
unique look. You can even input your own custom sizes if you want. Or you can
resize them independent of one another and move each one around freely on the
page. ShutterBug gives you a wealth of options without sacrificing quality.
Click, Action!
You can decide what happens when the thumbnail picture is clicked. Choose from
one of these actions:
• Open a slideshow in a new page
• Have the slideshow on the same page
as the thumbnails and change the
slideshow picture when a thumbnail is
clicked
• Open the picture in a new window
• Navigate to another page or another
website (opens embedded link)
• Set the click action to do nothing
• Or activate a LightBox show
Attractive, Elegant Slideshows
ShutterBug slideshows offer everything from fade transitions, to adding picture
frames and freestyle positioning of the slideshow picture, controls and captions. You
can choose to display a standard slideshow and make only a few adjustments to
such attributes as caption font, control fonts, and slideshow sizing. Or you can set
every fine detail by using the freestyle option. You can even choose to show the
other elements on your page during the slideshow view and include as much text
description and comments as you like. You can edit everything about the slideshow,
or you can leave it the way it comes with the template, it's up to you!
Caption it!
Your captions for your thumbnails and slideshow
views can be adjusted independent of one another.
You can change the font style, color, size, and line
leading for multiple line captions. Adjust the space
between the thumbnail and caption text and set
the alignment, bolding, italics or underlining. You
can choose to show the captions as tool tips when
hovering over a thumbnail, or place them above,
below, or inset them on the thumbnail. You can
also choose to make them invisible if you want.
