Ace Huynh
Using software is one of the easiest ways to create a photos gallery. However, tons of software helps you making beautiful galleries. Which one should you use?

I recommend you to use Web Album Maker because it is a freeware. Besides, Web Album Maker is very easy to use. Just going through a few steps, you are able to possess a great gallery. You can download Web Album Maker here. The program is only about 2 MB of your system resource.

Three steps to create a photos gallery with Web Album Maker:

Step 1: Choosing photos to put into your gallery

You can click "Image" or go to Photo>Add Photos to locate the photos you want to put into the gallery. Remember to hold Ctrl to select many photos at the same time. In the process, push "Delete" button to eliminate the photo that you do not like. Click "Del All" to get rid of all photos. Click "Next" to go to next step.

Step 2: Choosing styles for your photos

The program provides 8 default styles. You have to go through these tabs: skin, style, thumbnail and slide. In "Skin" tab, click on the scroll-down arrow to choose your favorite appearance for the album. In "Style" tab, I recommend you to leave it as default because the default style is the best. In Thumbnail tab, the default dimension is 85x120. Unmark "Default" if you want to resize the thumbnail. In addition, in "Slide" tab, the default dimension is 500x700. You can unmark "Default" to adjust the dimension. After adjusting all tabs, click "Next" to go to next step.

Step 3: Create gallery. This includes:

Album title: you have to type in the title for your web that contains the gallery.

Output: click "Browse" to locate where you want to save your gallery. The default folder is C:/MyAlbum.

Make Slide: unmark "Default" if you want to reset your slide show in gallery.

Keep Thumb Shape and Keep Slide Shape: choose dimension for your photos in slide show and thumbnail mode.

After all three steps are done, click "Make Album" for the program to begin creating your gallery. Then, click "View Album" to see your result. If you are satisfied with the gallery, you can upload it to internet to share with your friends and family members. I hope you would be successful with this method to create a great photos gallery. All it costs is three easy steps.
