Working with Albums

Photo albums allow easy identification and access to images for viewing, editing, printing, etc. Simply click on the Get Photo button on the Main Screen, and select Album to view the album options. It is important to remember that albums do not store images. When an album is created, thumbnails are generated and a reference to where the files are located is recorded in the album file. For example, if a thumbnail is added into an album from a floppy disk, that floppy disk must be in the floppy drive in order to view the file.
