Description

Tiger skin is the successor of the popular Turtle skin, featuring a responsive layout and inherited numerous features from Photoblogger skin too.

IMPORTANT! Please read this:

Take precautions with any major release
-------------------------------------

- If you upgrade, preferably test it on a new, small album to see if it works
- Back up your important album(s) before applying the new version. Use "File -> Duplicate project"
- Note, some settings might not be imported to the new version, because they work differently.
- Make sure you refresh the browser in the Preview (F12) with Ctrl-F5 to get rid of the traces of the old version.
- Always test the local version with "Preferences / Use jAlbum's embedded server", and use "External browser".
- Upload the album only if the local preview looks and works fine
- Finally, if you can't get along with the new version you can always go back to the latest by clicking the "Latest stable major version" link on the left. You can revert to the old settings in the Image directory (Ctrl-Shift-I) by renaming the "-old" settings file as "jalbum-settings.jap".

Switching from Turtle:
----------------------
Please note, as Tiger is based on a different language than Turtle, the function calls have changed too. Therefore custom pages might carry old code from Turtle skin, which might trigger errors.
Install this tool: https://jalbum.net/forum/thread.jspa?threadID=52475 to fix the old custom pages after switching from Turtle to Tiger skin!

Releases

6.2.0 Jan 9, 2025 (current)

New:
- High-resolution hero background image for HiDpi devices. This option is now the default because the number of HiDpi devices keeps increasing.

Fixed:
- In the fixed-shape thumbnail layout, the slide images might get loaded as thumbnails if the thumbnail dimensions were manually edited and the given dimension was too small
- Panorama images not auto-started in some instances, or maybe not from the left side even if it was set that way
- Images larger than the lightbox can't be moved around with swipe movements because the previous/next image action took over
- Map overlay files (GPX) are not recognized on MacOS systems

6.1.2 Dec 18, 2024 (previous)
