Good organizer with some editing capabilities November 18, 2008
Software is easy and intuitive to use. Most users should be able to use most of the features without reading the manual.
Editing features are quite simple to fix, and the Quick Fix feature is good for entry level users to adjust brightness quickly. For intermediate users, more control can be had with individual brightness, saturation, focus controls. However, even an entry level editor such as Adobe Photoshop Elements (the software gives you option to buy Paint Shop Pro) will provide much more control.
Cropping works very well, with both freeform and standard sizes to match cropped pictures to desired picture sizes (3x5, 4x6, 5x7, etc.).
Picture frames need some work, as placing a vertical frame on a horizontal pictures results in graphics in the frame to become horizontal (can not use the 'doggy' picture frame on a horizontal picture or the dog will be pointed down).
Corel gives you option to backup to Sharpcast, and signing up for an account is simple. However, the premium service (where your pictures don't get downsized) is much more expensive compared to services such as [...], etc. There are other options, and it would be nice if the software allowed users to set up links to other popular sites.
In conclusion, if you are looking for an organizer and don't expect to do heavy duty editing, this software will work. Otherwise, look into Photoshop or Paint Shop.
 For those who just want to take and share pictures November 16, 2008

First off, this is not a program meant to compete with Photoshop or other more substantive photo editing programs. It's not meant for that.
What it is meant for is novice computer users or photographers who want a better, simple, quality way to both organize and edit their pictures.
As such, it's a really great replacement for the standard Windows software that comes with XP and Vista. It allows for great file/photo management, provides a single stop for basic photo adjustments, and even allows for making movies and otherwise adapting the pictures for a variety of use.
The photo editing is not astounding, but it is certainly of a much higher quality than I've seen in other basic programs of this type. It uses much the same approach as does Corel's meatier programs as found in Corel Draw X4.
Indeed, I was a bit surprised when this program didn't let me install it on my desktop. The installer said it was already installed and quit. Took me a few moments to realize what it was talking about. Turns out that this is the same as the Media One program that comes with Corel Draw. So, if you have that, you don't need this.
I've used a lot of photo software over the years ranging from the most basic to the elite. I'm a big fan of Corel now because they play well with multiple file formats, offer a very high quality at a low price, and generally are made for the most efficient user experience possible.
The Photo Album is no exception and offers a great package of tools for those who don't want or need or could understand anything more complicated. Definitely a great program for those who just want to take pictures, rather than be a photographer.
Nice Photo Editing Program November 13, 2008
This is a very nice little photo editing program that allows even the novice (me) to fix photo faux pas without spending hours poring over a manuel or a help screen. Wanna whiten teeth, no problem and it looks good too. Wanna add a suntan, you can do that easily as well, though that doesn't look all that good. Wanna make a calendar or a fake magazine cover, you can do it with Corel Photo Album 7 and you can do it without reading the manuel. You can make greeting, birthday, Christmas or any other kinds of cards too, so no more shopping at the Hallmark Store for that perfect card, because you can design one just the way you like.
Again I'll say it, this is a nice little program that does just what I want it to do, plus it automatically organizes your photos, I had almost five hundred photos on my computer and the program had no problem with them. I like the way I can turn a photo into black and white or sepia without any effort and I like the automatic color enhancement. So far everytime I've asked the program to automatically fix the color it's improved the photo. I don't see how anyone could go wrong with this software.
Oh yes, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention the excellent redeye removal (did I say that right) that this software does. That's way cool. Nobody wants their little darlings to look like little devils.
Very Good for What it is November 13, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm a Photoshop user, have been since version 4 and have faithfully upgraded every year all the way through CS3 and very soon I'll be upgrading again. Yes, Photoshop is a complicated program with a steep learning curve, but I've you've lived with it as long as I have you don't think about it. So, basically I wasn't all that interested in Corel Photo Album 7, as I didn't see what it could possibly have to offer me.
Yes you can whiten teeth with few clicks, but for me, I do what I have to do in Photoshop with such speed, what's a click or two here or there. And I have my photos organized just the way I want, thank you very much.
But I did install the software. That went without a hitch, took about six or seven minutes. And then I played around with it and I must admit I like the quick way you can align you're photos if they're not straight, it beats Photoshops rotating tool all to heck, but I don't think I'd be doing much photo retouching or editing with this program.
But my better half the writer, who takes bazillions of photos with his iPhone and his Cool Pix, just loves this program. He does not have Photoshop on his computer, hates it, says it bloat ware. He's been doing photo editing with Vista's built in software and he likes Photo Album 7 oh so much better. He says it's intuitive, easy to use and that he does everything he wants. And that caused me to reassess this program. I wasn't going to give it a very high grade, but after listening to him I see that Corel didn't make the program for people like me, they made it for him and all the people out there who doesn't want to shell out hundreds and hundreds of dollars for Photoshop and believe me, I've dug very deeply into my pockets over the years to stay current with Photoshop. So, from that point of view, this really is a five star program.
Excellent Product with Superb User Guide November 13, 2008
Photo Album 7 is a great product with an exceptional user guide. It is fun to use and allows me to do so much more with my digital photos.
This was the first "independent" photo product I have used. I have a digital camera and while it came with software to edit pictures it is not nearly as good as this product.
When I first got Photo Album 7 I loaded the software and was able to figure a lot by myself. The software is easy to use. There is a great help system as well. Some of my favorite features are "quick fix" which automatically improves the quality of photos and photo fix which allows you to manually do this while displaying a before and after picture so you can see the results of the changes made. Other features allow you to remove blemishes, red eye or add a tan to a person. Another fun feature is the ability to change the photo to black and white or Sepia.
I then decided to look at the User Guide, which on page 7 lists "Workflow Tips" which is a diagram showing five key features of this product. The features are, Download and organize, Edit and enhance, Create, Share and Protect. The next two pages of the guide describe these features and tell you where in the guide you can find them. Additionally there is a great index in the back of the guide. The user guide is full of drawings and pictures which give great explanations on how to use Photo Album 7. Since I am a first time user this information was extremely helpful. I was able to do so much more.
My digital camera allows me to take short videos and now I can view these with the software. You can also create photo shows that I have yet to do but plan to once I have the time. A create button in the software allows you to make calendars, greeting cards, collages and a bunch of other creative things.
Photo Album 7 is a product that will give me and my family a chance to add so much to the photos taken on my digital camera. I am looking forward to all it has to offer. This is a great product and highly recommended.
