InAlbum offer two ways of making a photo show.
1. By choosing a theme template
A theme template automatically put preset decoration to your show (layout, photo transition, background, font, text color, intro and ending). InAlbum offer variety of theme templates. Each is uniquely designed to suits different occasion such as Birthday, Valentine, Wedding, etc. This is a quick and easy way to create your show. A show created using a theme template can still further be enhanced by adding animated/static clipart, sound and speech bubble.
2. By using a custom template
A custom template enables you to have more customization over your show. Instead of choosing a theme that automatically define your show decoration, you can choose your own photo transition, background, layout, font, text color, photo frame, intro and ending. The creation process will not be as quickly as using theme template but in return you can tweak your show a little bit further. A show created using a custom template can also still further be enhanced by adding animated/static clipart, sound and speech bubble.
Either way, the show creation process is very straight forward and consist of 5 steps. The only different between choosing a theme template or using a custom template is at step 3.
Step 1. Collecting photos
Step 2. Editing photos
Step 3. Choose a theme template / Customize your template
Step 4. Decorating your show
Step 5. Changing show settings
