Making your show smaller for online viewing
Whenever we talk about making your show available online, you need to consider the size of your show. The bigger the show the longer it takes for people who try to view your show online to wait before they can see it. Using a standard modem 56K connection, it takes 2.5 minutes to download 1MB file. Using broadband will take only 5 to 10 seconds.
InAlbum provides a very useful compression tool.
By default the exported show will be compressed according to default settings:
| • | Photo quality is set to medium |
| • | Music file will be trimmed to 45 seconds |
To modify this settings, click Settings button at the top of the window.
