  1. Link to scaled-down images only: Thumbnails images will link to scaled-down images, the image bounds are set in the ‘Settings/Images/General/Image bounds’. Original images and hi-res images are not included as part of the album.
  2. Link to hi-res* via scaled images: Thumbnails still link to the scaled down images, but hi-res images are included in the album. The size of the hi-res images is limited to a maximum of 2048 x 2048 pixels. Note, when using skins that are not javaScript based, ‘Make Slide pages’ (5) should be checked, otherwise there will be no links in the album to the hi-res images. Hi-res images are accessed from a link on the associated scaled down image’s slide page. When using for example the Turtle skin, this checkbox doesn't need to be checked.
  3. Link to originals: Thumbnails link to the original image, the image bounds for slide images do not apply and slide pages need not be made. By default, ‘Copy originals’ (6) will be checked, adding a copy of the original image to your album. If this is not selected the thumbnails will link to your original image, which will need to be accessible from wherever your album is stored. If you deselect copy originals you will be prompted to make sure your originals are uploaded.
  4. Link to originals via scaled: Thumbnails link to the scaled down images, which then link to the original. As with linking to hi-res images, ‘Make Slide pages’ (5) should be checked, otherwise there are no links in the album to the original images.
  5. 
Make slide pages: Slide pages allow for navigation between the main images. If not made the thumbnails link directly to the image, visitors would need to use the browser’s back button to get back to the thumbnail images and then select another image to view. Note, that this is only true for the non javaScript based skins. In javascript based skins like turtle, turing off Make slide pages will make Turtle run in dynamic mode which makes the slideshow much smoother.
  6. Copy originals: A full size copy of the original image is added to the album and links to the originals point to those copies. If originals are being used in the album and this option is not selected then broken links could appear unless the originals are accessible from the album’s location.
  7. This setting does not work for all skins, it depends on how the skin itself handles the thumbnail layout.
  8. When the image order on view>>Order by is set to According to jAlbum settings, these settings will be applied.
  9. You can add a link to your home page in the album. This is great if you for example are linking to the album from your home page and want the user to be able to get back to your home page after finnish viewing the album. Add the URL with “http://” included and then add an appropriate text.
  10. Credit links are displayed by default in all albums, here you can change the credit link text or you can turn it off. You need to have a license in order to turn it off.
