Fotobook

Just like you used to, or still keep pictures in a cool album, it’s possible to create them on a computer. Specialized applications like Fotobook allow you to bundle all pictures of interest inside a customizable album layout you can save, or even order online to be shipped to your home.

Choose from a variety of album types

Every time you run the application you’re first taken through a wizard process to configure initial layout and design details. There are different samples to go through, with a side panel letting you get an idea of the arrangement, as well as an estimated cost, which updates accordingly if your Internet connection is active.
Once you’re happy with the layout, the file is saved and you’re taken in the actual editor to take matters into your own hands. The center area is where all elements of a page are edited, while side panels provide quick access to locations on your computer for easy image selection, as well as various page styles to choose from.

Customize pages and preview the product

The application comes with quite the variety of editing options. For starters, pictures are inserted in predefined spots through a drag and drop operation, and it’s also possible to have picture boxes resized. Various page layouts are at your disposal to include one or more pictures, as well as text, which is not really mandatory.
Pictures can be rotated and moved across the page. Every album type comes with a predefined number of pages which can be edited. There’s a built-in preview mode which gives you an idea how the actual product looks like.

On an ending note

All things considered, we can state that Fotobook is a powerful album builder which comes in handy to create a cool gift, or simply store your memories in a neat environment. Editing operations allow you to create custom page layouts, with the preview section delivering accurate feedback.
