Polish your vacation photos

Most of us are all returning from summer vacation and the time has come to transfer all the photos from your digital camera to the computer. Why not polish the photos a bit before putting them online. This is a wonderful time to discover the Jalbum photo editing tools. This blog post will just give a quick intro to the rotate tool.

From Jalbum 8.0 you can double click a thumbnail image to enter edit view. Here you can add all kind of effects to your album. This is primary an album function only. You can add any kind of effect to your image without overwriting the actual file. You can save it as a copy with the modifications if you please.

The rotate tool is great for adjusting horizon for your sunset images. Simply chose the tool and use your mouse to rotate the image. In this image I use the crop mode for the Rotate tool. I means that the image gets cropped into the largest possible image without having rotated edges. You can also use “Enlarge” or “Keep size” to show a rotated version of the image, with a background image of your choice.

Now I have nice photo from my parents country house after sundown, with horizon perfectly aligned. After applying the effect I will simply build and publish my album to the web.

Feel free to send us creative suggestions on how to use the Jalbum photo editing tools
