It seems to be useful, but several alternatives do exist.

Freeware can be used to Create online photo albums as well :

This has to be one of the buggiest software packages i've seen on GOTD.

1./ The software doesnt work on a screen with y-resolution 768. You cannot access all the toolbars and they are not scrollable. Therefore this software is useless on a laptop or smaller TFT.

2./ By default every picture has a oval mask. You can change the mask from a selection of 5 ovals, but you cannot remove the oval mask!

3./ It seems that the main focus of this program is to animate transitions between pictures. Just like powerpoint transitions... these are things that we DONT or SHOULDNT be doing by default and to every slide!

4./ The flipping book output, even in full frame, does not zoom the pictures to full screen, but surrounds them in a mask

5./ Error on output files as previous posters have mentioned

This is a really poor offering even as freeware, let alone paid software. Deleted.

I like Flip Album, but it's not the type of software which I normally use, so I can't really compare it to similar offerings. The install was clean, but execution does create some scattered folders and temporary files. There is a PDF documentation file, but no Help. It's not my job to create Help files for developers, there's a lot to this, you have to be able to look around the UI (seriously). I'm sure that there will be endless comments from people claiming that Flip Album can't do things which it can. Some of the links in the program are broken, some of the More links go to inaccessible pages on Boxoft, and one particular help link goes to the wrong site. Additional Templates cost, but you can download additional Themes (a few are already included) per Template. There's a lot to this, you can do interesting things with photos, but you may need to crop them before adding them, as Flip Album will let you zoom them within frames and masks, but apparently not pan them.

GOTD really needs to change or eliminate the voting system. I have much more important things to do with my time, but if GOTD doesn't do something about it, I'll deal with the vote manipulator on my comments, there's nothing that I can do about other comments.

As an extra addition to the description from above, you can also save albums as *.app files, which are executable applications that work on Macs. You can see the website for this product here: http://flippdf.com/flip-album/index.html

I use various forms of flip-book software, and collage making software, so am familiar with several different ones.

I have only had a quick play with this one, and haven't taken it through to creating a flip book - only the page creation / photo and other artefacts manipulation stage.

This one does seem to have a few interesting and unusual effects which aren't present in the other softwares I've used, and so is worth keeping for that alone.

It did, however, hang once and I had to end process, plus, as someone has already mentioned,I did find a couple of dead links (one that I can remember off the top of my head is the 'More' button on the frames, masks, clipart, etc menus).

However, to those who said that you cannot either pan or remove frames: you can do both. To pan / tilt, select the photo by clicking it and a green cross with arrows appears in the centre. Click and hold this to move the photo around within the frame. To remove the mask, right-click on a photo and it's one of the option on the menu that appears.

Incidentally, there are far more masks that someone else suggested (ie not just a few oval ones). What appears initially is only page 1 of 14. Look at the bottom left of the menu bar. This applies to many of the menu bars, so don't just assume that the only options available are the ones immediately visible.

Overall, definitely one I will be keeping and experimenting with some more.
