I like 'em all. Looks like a lovely weekend.

One techie note. The first image has a lot of white along the edges of 
the dark grass stems. Not sure what it is. Doesn't look quite like 
sharpening halo? If you put images into JAlbum at one size, and display 
at another, it does a low quality (IMO) resize, which might cause such a 
problem.

I size my images for the web before going into JAlbum. On the Navigation 
Tab in Settings, I select "Link to Originals", "Copy Originals" and 
"Make Slides". Then none of the choices on the Images Tab apply and the 
images look just as they did in PS.

Not the worst interface around, but some bits are not immediately 
intuitive. By the time you add the skin choices, there are just too many 
things to set, and I tend to forget between sessions.

On the other hand, it works well and the price is right.

For just tossing some images up on the web in a decent looking gallery, 
Singapore is even quicker and simpler. Once installed, you can just FTP 
images to a new sub-directory and like magic, there they are in a new 
gallery page. If you want something other than directory and file names 
as titles, you then do a few moments of editing in your Singapore Gallery.
