I'm starting from scratch again after getting a new laptop. I was sure I backed up all necessary data to not be lost when I needed to build an album but I failed at that somehow. I copied jAlbum folders in application data roaming to same location in windows 11 but nothing seems to be there so I have no idea what I'm doing. I need to get an album up fast for about 100 cars totaling 3600 images. I don't recall what skin I used to use that I loved and worked out well but I was thinking it was Tiger. However after copying all the files and attempting the Settings options, it only shows 6 columns and no rows... do I need to build it first before configuring it? I also need to recall how to put a copyright watermark or text over each image. Any pointers to get me started would help, I'm already behind because I lost my configs. I just updated to the latest version and I did manage to configure my FTP account.

One of your recent albums uses Turtle, https://www.hallettfotoshoppe.com/PCAWarbonnet/
When you open the restored project folders, copied to 'application data roaming' you should see a 'jalbum-settings.jap' file in each folder. Double clicking that should open the project. If you see a message saying 'Turtle skin is missing, do you want to get it' click yes/ok. The project should then open properly.

Have you tried the above already?

No, I haven't tried that, but I guess I panicked too soon. What a great program to use for this, I doubt if there is anything better. I was able to get up an album in time, although not perfect yet but somewhere to start. I used Tiger. Wasn't crazy about some of the items but everything was amazingly simple. Now I can tweak. https://hallettfotoshoppe.com/18thAnnualMikeStephens/
I'm not sure how you can name the albums without the spaces, and I re positioned the gallery theme image but it still was too low. Thanks.
