This review is from: Corel Photobook (CD-ROM)

I bought the Software last year and have been using that since. It is composed of two main Softwares. One of them is called "Photobook" and is capable of processing digital photos. It has tools to adjust sharpness and color and brightness and ... It has tools to add effects to photos like make them look bubbly or wet or black&white ... It has a tool to add frames to photos (there are several many choices for frames). It also has a button-maker to create photo buttons for websites. You can also add text and figures to you photos. It works great for me and I have processed almost all of my photos with it. I have to confess I haven't even used all its features yet as they are too many. The button maker is my favorite as I can use the output in my websites and online albums.

The Second Software is the Album maker. Surprisingly, it is not as great as photobook. Its main drawback is that it cannot save your half finished albums somewhere to be invoked and updated later. You have to create the final album right away, which is normally not easy. The choices of frames and settings are also limited for a commercial Software. Instead I use "Web Album Generator" or "JAlbum" which are a free-download softwares online and perform better than Corel photo album.
