Filters Attention After changing any of the these settings you need to rebuild the gallery with the "All" checked (JAlbum 7) or "Build all" button (Jalbum 6.x) for the changes to take effect! Convert to grayscale Makes thumbnails or closeup images Black and White. Crop to fixed shape Makes thumbnails or closeup images all the same shape, sized exatly the width and height specified via the Settings / Images / Image bounds boxes. Thumbnails for Index pages, Images for Slide pages. Note, that you can manually edit these boxes and input any value. The most frequent use of this filter is to use square-shaped thumbnails on index pages — use e.g. 120x120 for thumbnail images and you'll get square thumbs with this filter. The cropping is done by selecting the middle part of the picture. cropped to 120x120px cropped to 90x120px cropped to 160x90px Zoom Enlarge thumbnails / closeup images by this percent before applying the filters. Combinig with Crop to fixed shape makes an interesting close-up detail effect. zoom: 67% zoom: 67% and cropped to 90x90px Color Map Assigns new blackpoint, medium and whitepoint colors (left to right) to images — this way makes a colorization effect. Combined with Grayscale filter makes a color gradient between the three defined colors. If you set the blackpoint to white, and whitepoint to black, this filter makes a negative image. Solarization effect can be achieved by defining the black and white points as black, and the medium as white.

Watermark Writes a watermarked text on each image. The strength is controlled by the opacity setting. The color setting is not working at the moment because of some JAlbum bug. You can put dynamic variables on the images, like $comment, $originalDate of $fileName. The "$" sign tells the program, that this is a variable. (Take care of the upper/lowercase letters!) For a more detailed list of variables click here. Logo Adds a logo/image to slide page images at the specified position. The filter does not resize the logo, so you first have to make it in the final size, and save it e.g. into the JAlbum's res folder (C:\Program Files\JAlbum\res on PC) as JPG or GIF or PNG. Using PNG format you will also be able to control the logo's transparency. You can put the file in any other folder too, or just have a direct link from the web, but in this case you need to specify the full URL path, e.g. file:///C:/adir/anotherdir/animage.jpg or http://jalbum.net/images/cup.png |
