Getting Images
The first thing you want to do when you start Photo Express is to get the
photos you want to work with into the actual program. The place you start
is with Album. From here, you can do almost anything in Photo Express. All
other ways of getting photos can work independently of Album, but they
are also set up to let you capture or open images directly to it.
Note: the Project tab only allows you to open Project Template files (*.tpx and
*.tpl). For information on adding photos and other images to the template,
please see Working with Templates.
Working with Album
Album lets you organize the photos in your
computer into convenient “books” similar to real-
world photo albums. These books contain
thumbnails of all the images you select to put in
them, as well as links to said images,
information, and annotations. This way, you
have instant access to all your photos from
directly within Photo Express. Organize photos
by author, subject, title and catalog.
To create a new Album:
1. Click the Get category button on the Command Panel.
2. Select Album from the Toolbar.
3. Click the New button in the Options panel. The New Photo Album
dialog box opens and you can set up the new album file.
