More info: "I first learned about JAlbum roughly over 2 years ago (sometime mid 2004), and been using it actively since. The community is great and just kept me giving back, no kidding it is positively addictive. Skin Aeneid, I'm developing (originally based on BluPlusPlus from Armond Avanes) was first for my use, but decided to share that one as well. About things that I grow under my skin: windsurfing, scuba diving, snowboarding, free-climbing, photography, philately, and last but not least my dog Beba ;) /Roni"

Just like everyone else, visited JAlbum site when I wanted to create an album for myself and the more I spent time on it, the more I liked it and inspired by the way the templates can be customized. Guess what? Started creating my own skins and to be frank it's the users community behind my continuous effort on my skin development. JAlbum Forum: great place to hang out :) Good luck with your new skin! /Dhina"

More info: "Back in 2003, I discovered JAlbum in the search of a web photo album generator to distribute and share my photos. Later I came up with BluPlusPlus skin to fulfill my needs completely (thanks to JAlbum's flexible templating system which is cleanly backed by java), and released it in public. And it's a couple of years I'm doing java professionally and enjoy software development a lot :-) As well, I'm an amateur photographer (a happy owner of "Canon EOS 350D") and enjoy photography as my main hobby especially if I'm on trip. /Armond"

Profile: Anders Engblom

More info: "I first came in contact with JAlbum when I got my first digital camera. I needed something that would take the labor out of creating photo albums and JAlbum fit the bill. Then there was the matter of finding the right skin - preferably something with an user interface that my father already knew - hence the XP skin. After I had created a few more skins it became clear that we needed a central place to share our skins and as David had his hands full with maintaining the actual JAlbum application, I put together the JRepository.
When I'm not in front of the computer (it's both my job and my hobby) I spend my time with my wife Marina and our dog Gibson. I am also a hobby musician, playing both the piano and the guitar. Right now my heart is set on mastering the jazz piano - with very mixed results I might add..."

Profile: Robert Marshall

More info: "I'm not a programmer, my background is in electronic engineering, and I don't "know" Java, but thanks to the ease of use of JAlbum and the support of the community I've been amazed at how much one can do with this program. In my case I wanted to be able to build a photo gallery that not only looked like it was part of a web site but was also fully integrated into it, rather than being an "add on". I also wanted to use CSS positioning instead of tables and frames and came up with the Notables skin. I also wrote a tool for creating a javascript based random slide show and total image count (handy for a count of images across multiple projects)."

More info: "After trying a number of photo album software, I found JAlbum exceeded my requirements. JAlbum is easy to use and does not need a fancy MySQL database. I enjoy customizing the software to fit my needs and sharing my custom skins for others to use as well."

More info: "In 2002 I had to find a way to organize about 1000 photos on a CD for easy presentation. I found JAlbum was a great program that could offer a range of flexibility that is not limited to some predefined templates. At that time the Help of JAlbum was only in English language and I thought it would be great when German speaking people, who aren't fluent in English could use this free program and create their own photo albums easily. So I translated the help files to German and later the JAlbum texts as well when a new update came out. My hobbies and my profession include developing software in C/C++, Java or Delphi and occasionally creating web pages."
