Millions of people across the world rang in the New Year with lofty resolutions, including getting organized. But where do you begin when you need to organize the hundreds-or even thousands-of digital photos on your computer? Corel Corporation, providers of the popular Corel® Photo Album™ 6 digital imaging software, offers three easy steps to organizing and protecting your digital photo collection.
Step 1: Free Your Photos from the Camera. Chances are, you took a lot of digital photos over the holidays that are still sitting on your camera. The first step in organizing and protecting your photos is to upload them onto your computer. Corel Photo Downloader can help you do this. Simply plug your camera or memory card into your computer and the software will automatically download and open your photos with Corel Photo Album. Within seconds, your photos will be transferred to the computer and ready for viewing.
Step 2: Get Organized! Now that you know how to transfer and view your photos in Corel Photo Album, you’ll want to organize them so that you can find them quickly. Corel Photo Album provides you with several methods for organizing your valuable photos. You can create, delete, rename, and move photos and folders. You can also create collections of photos, add keywords, assign ratings to your favorite photos, and catalog the photos and folders on your drives and removable media. Lastly, you can easily set aside or tag the photos that you want to email or print within minutes.
Step 3: Keep Your Photos Safe. With billions of digital photos stored on computers every year, and less than 15% of home users actively backing up their hard drives (Source: IDC), more and more people are vulnerable to losing treasured photos through system crashes or viruses. Corel Photo Album 6 includes powerful PhotoSafe™ technology to automatically back up your photos to your CD or DVD, making it easier that ever to keep your photos safe and protected. In addition, Corel Photo Album 6 includes PHOTORECOVERY® software that recovers accidentally erased images, movies, and sound files from all types of camera memory cards.
Corel Photo Album 6 – Deluxe Edition is available for a suggested retail price of $49 US and is available at major retailers and resellers across North America including Amazon, PC Mall, Dell.com, Atomic Park, STAPLES Business Depot, Office Depot, CDW, PC Connection, SHI and Software Spectrum.
