Being this a new feature which changes many things, can break some of the album functionality. Use with precaution and test.
- If you want to play safe, disable the "Make slides" option on Settings / Pages / Advanced / Make slides - jAlbum might turn it on occasionally
- This update brings a new method for image linking, therefore when you update albums made previously, make sure to regenerate all sub-folders.

(Version 3.4.1 July 6, 2012)

New features:
- You can give a name to the "up link" (e.g. "All albums")
- ZIP originals or down-scaled images per folder and offer for download
(not only the whole album)

Changed:
- The "up link" feature has been moved into jAlbum's functionality, see on
"Settings / Pages" panel.
- Facebook Like, Twitter Tweet and Tumblr buttons removed from the individual images, because they were not referring to the image, but the whole album.

Fixed:
- Missing thumbnail of videos with "Link to originals" with no "Copy originals"
- Bug with XLSX, DOCX, PPTX files
- Facebook commenting might run out of the scroller area if there were no album images in a folder

Updated:
- Korean translation by Jaehyung Lee, Hungarian translation

Notes:
- jAlbum will take over the old up link settings of Turtle.
- ZIP originals works even if you don't select the "Link to originals" or
"Copy originals".
- The ZIP feature always creates (and Uploads) the ZIP files even if that's
unnecessary, because Turtle cannot detect if the files has changed. We might implement some change detection later. Sorry for the inconvenience!

New features:
- Facebook Commenting
- Visitors can download the whole album as ZIP

Fixed:
- Controls should disappear quicker on touch devices
- Videos did not scale to fit initially, only after clicking the fit/1:1 button
- Thumbnail for sharing was not available when none of the sharing was selected

Please note, due to the fact the ZIP format does not store the Encoding (locale) of the file and folder names you might get broken file names (and albums) after extraction on Widows. Java encodes these names to UTF-8, which is used by OSX and Linux by default. Windows, however, is decoding them using the visitor PC's locale (never UTF-8). We will create a little applet by which visitors can decode these ZIP files properly, but until then I suggest you to keep with simple ASCII file and folder names, and use the "Title" field in Edit mode to add accented characters. This method is more safe for using the album on the web too.

For the Facebook commenting feature you will need to create a new app on Facebook's developer center: https://developers.facebook.com/ Copy the App ID in Turtle's Facebook App ID box. You can use the same App ID on all pages of your site.

New features:
- Headline font size can be controlled through the user interface
- You can disable adding ALT tags to images (avoid search bots to pick keywords)
- Automatic image correction filter
- You can add custom code to the HEAD and BODY sections

Fixed:
- Better "Stick controls to top" behavior

Changed:
- No duplicate Title in the search results if your Image caption template already includes the ${title}, ${fileTitle} or ${fileLabel} variables

2.2.0 Notes:

New features:
- You can control what will happen after moving beyond the last frame: "Nothing", "Start over", "Go one level up", "Go back to index page" or "Ask the user"

(Also click "Show All" to see how to fix "Internal Error 500" if you made an album with Turtle 2.1.7 and hosted on a server not based on Apache)

Modified:
- Removed .htaccess file from the skin, because it didn't work with all servers, and possibly could overwrite the user's own, previously added one. Those who experience "Internal Error 500" errors on their server don't need to regenerate the album however, just go into the "Upload / Manage" (Ctrl-M), Connect, click the wrench icon, and remove .htaccess file from the problem folder.

Info: .htaccess file was added in order to define the correct mime types (file handling by type) and to fine tune caching by file type. (E.g. JPG files can remain in the cache for longer times, while HTML files need to skip the cache.)

Upgraded:
- jQuery to 1.7.1
- HTML boilerplate to 2.0

Fixed:
- Theme image is now stretched to fit the Title area
- Text color remained black on old Turtle 1.x albums when upgraded to 1.x (you should re-select the Black style to avoid this, but now the skin itself fixes it too)
- No centering on IE7 and 8 when border width was set 0
- Javascript error on IE7 and 8 (in jQuery)

Fixed:
- Popups left on by mistake on mobile devices
- Wrong formatted encoded quote characters
- Fixed some validation errors. Now it validates as HTML5 (experimental), besides Meta tags required by Facebook share and Google +1 call code
- Google +1 button did not work in some cases

Updated:
- Italian translation by Giovanni D'Amico

New features:
- You can use metadata in Caption templates, e.g. ${Iptc.City}

Fixed:
- Disappearing thumbnail captions when moving the mouse fast
- Memory leak related to thumbnail captions
- Facebook share button works again: Read the announcement in the Turtle forum

New features:
- You can use jAlbum variables in the header and footer boxes, e.g. ${resPath}
- Download hint (Right click + Save link as...) added for the "Original" button

Fixed:
- Broken album when using apostrophe character in folder names (with URL encoding turned off)
- <b> <strong> <i> and <em> tags did not take effect in the comments

New feature:
- Sharing options on the Info panel too. Please note, that not all sharing sites support links with hash, which is used by Turtle skin to link directly to the actual image. Even though Facebook will link to the actual image, it takes its thumbnail from the static page, that is it will use the Theme image, not the actual.

Fixed:
- Albums with "Link to original" used the high resolution images as thumbnail, resulting in slow page loads
- With transition type "Crossfade" the Zoom-in effect took place while in "Fit to screen" mode, causing slower transitions
- Better reference to album thumbnail that Facebook will like more, hopefully

New feature:
- Better touch control on Android devices

Updated:
- Italian translation by Giovanni D'Amico
- Finnish translation by Pentti Stenman
- French translation by Danamel
(The language updates were missing from the bundled version came with jAlbum 10.1, so install this version if you are using the languages above.)

Fixed:

New features:
- Added transition type: None (for the purists)
- You can add Header and Footer through the user interface
- Added option for displaying the folder description and image count along the folder thumbnails

Fixed:
- Audio loop didn't work
- Map did not work when the image caption template was empty
- Broken cross-fade transition (temporary blackout) on FireFox 5-7, due to a bug in FireFox's rendering engine
- Text color did not work on some places resulting in hard to read texts

Changed:
- The help button has been moved from the theme image area to the footer. No UI option for hiding it, as it's now hidden enough to bother anybody, I hope.

New:
- Control for transition type (Cross fade and Cross fade + zoom currently) and speed on the Advanced panel

Fixed:
- The second file of background audio did not play (if added as album file).

- Google Checkout Shopping cart is implemented besides Paypal (no overall handling is available yet)

UPGRADING FROM TURTLE 1.x ALBUM PROJECTS

Using Black or White stlyes, please re-select the style (not the skin), to allow the new background and text color settings be set. Without this you might end up in unreadable text.

The following settings need attention when opening old projects, because they will be reset to their default values (in parentheses):

- Splash size (Image width x Image height * 0.66)
- Reduce Thumbs (2 / 3)
- Facebook Like button (no)
- Show photo data (no)

These changes were necessary because the skin's code was now rewritten to work with other upcoming skins.

The Location and Shop option data added manually in the Edit mode has changed names too, but you can apply the Tools / External Tools / Rename Slide Variables tool with the following parameters to keep them working in the new version:
- _location = location
- _shopOptions = shopOptions

This change was necessary because jAlbum app has changed its handling of slide variables.

Besides the above changes the BlackBlue and BlackRed styles were removed, though tons of new styles were added at the same time.

The Shopping cart feature is only available for Premium or Power account holders and those who've bough the Pro license. Jalbum.net's past donators will also receive the Pro licence.

Bugs fixed:
- "Method insert( int, java.lang.String ) not found"

Changed:
- Direct photo links changed from picture number to photo name, in order to keep links pointing to the same photo even after adding new ones. Read more about this change in the Turtle forum, see "Internal links have changed using the filename instead of picture number!" sticky

Fixed:
- Album thumbnails now shows up on community sites like Facebook. Works with sharing from the album list, the Share widget and straight from the Turtle albums
- Empty page beyond "Splash depth level" and "Auto start" is off

New features:
- Slideshow automatically starts when requested and no folders found in the current album level (previously it was working only when the page was beyond the Splash depth level)
- Handling the new "hiRes" images (resized to cca. 3 MPx)
- Keyboard is enabled on the popup window (Where to go next?)

Changed:
- Wider window for the facebook 'Like' button to have enough space for the translated versions

Fixed:
- In certain HTML caption templates while the skin tried to remove the empty HTML constructs it removed important tags too. Was no problem with the default template though.

New features:
- Google Analytics code automatically inserted if you add the Site ID on the Turtle settings panel
- Option to disable mouse wheel navigation (can be useful when embedding the album into another page)
- Added Right click protection option
- Updated Korean translation

Fixed:
- Empty HTML tags now got stripped from captions (in case of empty comments, etc.)

- Fixed jQuery 1.4.4 (the underlying javascript library) to handle the thumbnail scroller properly. Also the animations supposed to run smoother.

*** I have introduced a new bug, which is just a wrong letter case in a file name, so it's not a new version just a minor change. Please install the skin again if you've downloaded it before 2010-11-15 02:00 AM CET. Sorry guys! ***

This version is to fix the unpredictably moving top thumbnail scroller which got broken by a bug in the updated underlying jQuery library. The problem only appears beyond cca. 80 images.

New features:
- You can skip the modal window at the last frame asking "What to do next?"

Fixes:
- Google map didn't appear due to a new behavior (bug) in the underlying jQuery javascript library, which resulted in 0x0 px map area

New features:
- Ability to apply filters to the splash (folder) image. Add filter / Generate album / Turn off 'Synchronize output directory' / Generate again. Voila.

Fixed:
- Better handling of proportionally sized (not fixed) thumbnails in most of the browsers.

Changed:
- Album info line backlinks

New:
- French translation thanks to Eyael
- Singe click on photos takes to the next one

New:

Bugs fixed:
- IE8 users might received a Javascript error: the underlying jQuery.js library need to be updated to 1.4.2

Bugs fixed:

- The link from the top level now says: 'Back to home' instead of 'Up one level'
- Added Czech translation

Bugs fixed

- Audio player didn't play the songs having international characters in filename
- Keyboard navigation is now disabled while the visitor is in an INPUT field (the arrows and space key navigated away from the current image)
- Jalbum's language variable was used the wrong way, thus the HTML header got wrong 'lang' attribute
- Apostrophe in folder name broke the page

New feature:
- You can reach both help screens from the splash and image pages as well.

Version 1.2.1 was a faulty release, because the backup software mixed up the files... Please download the current version.

A silent release was made in order to set the 'Automatic widget code injection' setting to true, which was set to false by mistake in the version 1.2.2 before 2010-05-17 12:00PM
