In their own words
jAlbum
jAlbum is desktop software for building photo and video gallery websites from local media, then publishing them to a personal site or a jalbum.net account. Its editor supports cropping, sharpening, level adjustments, automatic correction, watermarks, and batch processing. The organizer can arrange photos by date and location, remove duplicates, and add tags. Users can choose among hundreds of customizable album templates, called skins. An included FTP client uploads galleries to web hosting. jAlbum says generated albums do not rely on server-side scripting. The free license allows galleries of at most 24 objects; the page says gallery size may otherwise depend on computer memory. Listed platforms are Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows, though desktop is the primary platform. Standard and Pro licenses include one year of priority email support, with replies within 24 hours on business days. The maker identifies photographers, artists, businesses, organizations, and families as potential users. jAlbum supports RAW photos, face recognition, and metadata tools, but does not offer cloud sync.
