This popular software (more than 600,000 Google references) allows you to create nice-looking photo galleries for the Web. You simply select or drag and drop folders containing images or movie files onto JAlbum, and it creates thumbnails and HTML pages to publish your images as a gallery or as a picture slide show. The galleries are based on various templates, and their appearance can be further customized by advanced users. Additional features include support for IPTC/EXIF data, style sheets, lossless image manipulation, pluggable image filters, and a built-in FTP client.

In version 4.6, thumbnails now are smoothly scaled without any noticeable speed loss (this option can be deselected). This feature is achieved by first scaling down thumbnails to twice their size, then doing the final scaling. Also, the user may now control where JAlbum searches for image comments, in any of five locations.
