Introduction
AlbumCreator
is a product to create professional looking web galleries, based on graphics
themes from all photos you took with your digital camera and share them with
your family and friends over the Internet.
To compose an album you can use our
occasional graphics templates in HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language - the
most common format to store and transfer data in web) and FLASH (Macromedia
Flash Technology format -format that creates dynamic animated images using
sound and other special effects). We call them themes
and they will be regularly updated. Information about new themes you can find
at
www.firmtools.com.
Also now it is possible to create your own theme, use it to compose an album or
exchange it with other AlbumCreator users at
Themes exchange page of our site.
