Album Website1.0

The Internet probably successfully tricked you into signing up for different social networks. It’s not bad though, as it’s a modern method of communication, and even file sharing. Pictures are a target file of choice, but sharing with a selection of friends is done easier with applications like Album Website.

Quick connection setup

At its core, the application aims to turn your computer into a host for custom picture galleries. Some ports need to be activated, with a description letting you know what, and how it needs to be done. This is done to enable others to connect to your gallery, since a link is generated, and pictures are shown in a browser.Setting up the album is done through the client counterpart. A simple window is brought up, with several sections for albums, images, description, and caption, as well as a small preview area for selected pictures.

Add images, and share album link

You’re free to create multiple albums, and this only requires you to add a name. An album doesn’t target a single folder, and you can load pictures from different locations. However, file support limits you to working with JPG files, and no other types.If you want to include more details, the application allows you to add a description, as well as custom text to each image, as caption. Saving is done at the press of a button, and you can just as well have the default web browser brought up to analyze the project.As far as the web album is concerned, it’s a clean, simple canvas which lets you select pictures to have them enlarged, for better preview. You can initiate a slideshow, toggle full screen, and move the large previews around the browser page. Sadly, there are not customization options, at least for a cool background.

To end with

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that Album Website is a neat photo sharing method, letting you create a simple album by selecting pictures you want to include, and sharing the generated link with your friends. Although it could have used a few more customization options, it’s worth a try overall.
