Step by step to make digital photo album with music

Step 1: Install Flash Gallery Factory.

Install your the digital photo album software first. You may found there are Gallery Mode and Slideshow Mode two modes in it. To make digital photo album, you can select both modes. Here I choose Slideshow Mode.

Step 2: Import your digital photos & background music

The program will go to "Browse" tab by default .Click "Add photo" build in button to add your photos or just drag the photos to storyboard directly. And then click "Add Music" button to add background music.

Step 3: Select template for your digital photo album

Flash Gallery Factory provides 60+ free digital photo album templates for you to choose. In addition you can custom your own template in Slideshow Mode. Here I made a custom template. Intro/credit movie can be added before and behind the digital photo album too. See below thumbnail to get more info.

Step 4: Add transition and motion effects.

There are 62 transition effects and 10 motion effects for you to make your digital photo albums with music more animated. You just need to drag the transition effects to the middle of the two photos in storyboard. And then switch to Motion Tab to drag the motion effects on the certain photos.

Step 5: Preview and publish your photo album with music

The digital photo album software provides various output formats, so you can publish your digital photo album in SWF, HTML or EXE formats as you like. If you can't finish making the flash photo album at one time and want to revise later, you can save it as a project by click the "File" Tab. See below thumbnail to get more info.

If you want to embed the flash photo album on web page, MySpace or Blogger, please publish it to SWF or HTML formats.

Step 6: Upload digital photo album on website

Upload the created SWF file to any web hosting and get the file's URL. If you don't have a personal web host, you can upload your SWF file to Google Sites for free. Then Copy and paste the following HTML code on your web page, MySpace or Blogger, so long as it supports HTML code. Then replace the red URL to the real SWF file address. You can also change the size of the flash photo album by revising the red number "264" and "550".

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" height="264" width="550" data="http://www.flash-slide-show.com/images/tutorials/flash_banner/banner550.swf">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
<param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" />
<param name="movie" value="http://www.flash-slide-show.com/images/tutorials/flash_banner/banner550.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
</object>

Ok, that's done. You see, in minutes, a wonderful flash photo album with music is made. It is so easy that no flash or programming skills are required.
