Create a photo collection

To Top

. . . start from scratch with a new collection

. . . OR use an existing collection as a starting point

If you want to keep both old and new collections, just resave it with a new name

Pick a photo frame

To Top

. . . OR computer screen

. . . OR projector

. . . OR mobile phone or other device (if it is capable of displaying photos)

All PhotoFrame Manager needs is the resolution you'll use to display the photos

Set up your frames, screens etc. ONCE and PhotoFrame Manager remembers them

Common sizes of frames and displays pre-set

Want to change the display . . . just open up the collection and pick a different frame

Pick your photos

To Top

. . . any photos

. . . stored anywhere on your computer

PhotoFrame Manager remembers where you've stored them

It doesn't matter whether they are all in the same place . . . or not

. . . as many or as few as you like

Include the same photo several times if you want to

Theme your collection by repeating a key photo after every few pictures

Or include a favourite photo several times in succession to keep it displayed for longer

Sort them

To Top

. . . any order you like

See the order in the thumbnails

Rotate them

To Top

. . . if necessary

. . . no more problems with sideways shots

Flip them too for a mirror image if you like

Crop them

To Top

. . . get rid of the bits you don't like

Easy to use visual tool for cropping

See the whole photo

With the part you've selected highlighted

Drag the edges to get the desired result

Zoom in for accurate cropping . . . or zoom out to see the full picture

Thumbnails and preview window update as you go

. . . just include the bits you want

If you've repeated a photo, pick different parts each time it appears

Show individuals from group shots

Successive photos can gradually zoom in or out

Fit them to your photo frame

To Top

. . . make sure the cropped size exactly fits the photo frame

Choose this and the visual cropping tool only allows selections that will fit exactly

. . . OR stretch it to fit the frame

Great for those abstract compositions

. . . OR ignore the fit and fill the spare space with a colour of your choice

As always, the thumbnails and preview window show the final result

Check the final result

To Top

. . . with thumbnails of every photo

. . . OR in the preview window

No guessing or hoping . . . what you'll get is what you see

Save the collection

To Top

. . . give it a name

. . . organise your collections how you like

Keep them with the photos or organise them separately

Whatever you do, PhotoFrame Manager leaves your photos exactly where they started

PhotoFrame Manager doesn't copy the photos . . . it just remembers where you put them

Export the photos for display

To Top

. . . to a folder

. . . a memory stick

. . . wherever!

PhotoFrame Manager creates the image files that your photo frame needs

Standard JPEG output . . . no bigger than needed for your photo frame

Makes your photos load quickly . . . and makes best use of your memory cards

The original photos aren't touched . . . PhotoFrame Manager does NOT edit your master copies!
