This product allows you to quickly create a photo album of digital images and photos.

An interesting feature is that the viewing of the album is done with an animated page flipping (with sound effects) of going from photo to photo.

There are two disappointments however.

First, there is no ability to manually sort or drag and drop your photos in the sequence you desire. To create the sequence, the program allows you to sort your photos alphabetically. However, this requires a tedious renaming of each of your photo files to make it work.

Secondly, it is nice to put an overall background music selection to the entire album viewing (e.g. Pachelbel's Kanon for a wedding album). However you can not time the album viewing to tie to the ending of the music resulting in a very amaturish music cut off.

You must also buy Flip Album's CD Maker if you wish to create self executable CD's so that you can distribute your album to friends and family. (Note: You can distribute using the WEB but you will have to leave off the sound to keep the file size managable)....

The company produces a "pro" version, they sell it for more than it's worth, and then they compete with you by plastering their name and links to their website all over the finished Flip Album. So, you produce and try to sell, or even give away a burned copy of your hard work, and they make you look foolish.
Their business ethics are questionable.
