Get updated in the wonderful world of jAlbum

 

About a year ago I was contacted by UK publisher Dorling Kindersely in London. They are producing a range of photographic and illustrated educational books for children aged 8-13 called "Eyewitness series", each with a different theme like "Crystal & Gems", "World war I" or Dinosaurs".

Each book is bundled with a clip-art cd, containing 100 images. They wanted the images presented in a way readable on both Windows and Mac and organized in hiearchies. They were also on a tight timeline. JAlbum turned out to be the perfect fit for them. As JAlbum albums can be used freely for both non-commercial and commercial purposes I naturally told them to go ahead with JAlbum.

I didn't think much more about this afterwards, but a couple of months back, a bunch of these books arrived at my doorstep to my surprise (Thank you DK). I've got to tell you that these books contains fascinating reading and well illustrated material. They are also a very good example of using JAlbum to share images on CD-ROM.

Hi thewrighhouse,

Jalbum makes html pages and store them on your computer. You can simply burn the album on a CD-Rom. You'll find the album by: Tools -> Open directories -> Output directory

Every review of Jalbum that I've seen contains the following quote. "You can also share your albums on CD-ROM.". I find absolutely no reference to that fact in the product nor any way to make that happen. What's up with that?
