E-Book Systems, Inc., announces today the release of the FlipAlbum® Vista, which allows users to instantly create cross platform compatible digital photo albums or product catalogs featuring E-Book Systems’ patented 3-D page-flipping interface. FlipAlbum® Vista extends the sharing capability by allowing Microsoft® Windows Vista users to export their digital photo albums to a higher-quality MPEG-2 video format for SVCDs or DVD creation.
The award-winning FlipAlbum® series allows users to create personalized digital photo albums on their PCs. Users can arrange digital pictures into virtual 3-D page-flipping albums and add background music, text, video and even select design themes. The albums can then be burned onto CD-ROMs and shared with PC and Mac users, as well as on VCDs, SVCDs or DVDs for TV viewing.
“E-Book Systems is committed to constantly improving our products to fit all of our users’ needs,” said Seng Beng Ho, president of E-Book Systems. “It is with that spirit in mind that we are pleased to provide Windows Vista users with our award-winning software so they can utilize and enjoy the many features and benefits of FlipAlbum.”
Used by professional and recreational photographers worldwide, more than 1 million copies of FlipAlbum® products have been sold. FlipAlbum® Vista includes all of the same features as the other award-winning FlipAlbum programs, in addition to Windows Vista support, WMV video support, MJPEG AVI video support and WMA audio support.
E-Book Systems is offering two versions of FlipAlbum Vista. FlipAlbum® Vista Pro (SRP $159.95) and FlipAlbum®Vista Suite (SRP $69.95) are available online at www.flipalbum.com.
FlipAlbum® Pro contains additional security features as well as the commercial license for photographers to sell photo album CDs and distribute them as promotional tools. Users can add image encryptions, passwords, watermarks and print locks on the CDs.
