  • New (Final) Beta Version 1.0.0.5

    RELEASE UPDATE

    We were planning on making the program available in April but have encountered some issues related to the ecommerce setup. We are working on getting these resolved ASAP. However, since we are dependent on a third party provider for one critical component, we cannot give a precise date. We expect the delay to be just a few days but it could be longer.

    Our development team has used this time to expand the original 8 built-in themes, to 20 themes. Because you have been waiting so patiently for the release of Shozam, we are making this final Beta available to you now.

    Download the latest Beta. (If you are new, you need to join; if you are a member, you need to sign in.

    IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THIS BETA VERSION

    1. Uninstall previous Beta versions: Because we have modified the name Shozam (see the first bullet under "Changes" below), you need to uninstall any previous Beta versions before you install this latest Beta.
    2. Name and Key: you will need to enter the Name and Key provided to you in the lefthand side of the Step 1 wizard panel when you install Shozam. We include them here as well, for your convenience.

      Name: [expired]
      Key: [expired]

    RELEASE NOTES: Version: 1.0 Build: 1.0.0.5

    ADDITIONS

    • Step 5->Link Tab->Affiliate ID - we have implemented a way for you to get an affiliate ID, so that if a viewer clicks the "Generated by Shozam" link on your gallery and purchases Shozam, you will receive a 10% commission. This feature will be activiated upon official release 
    • Slideshow page should have an auto scroll bar (for viewers with screens set at 800x600px)
    • Step 2->Other Tab->Source image -  "Scale down..." lets you resize your high-resolution images 
    • Step 2->HTML Tab->Put two entry fields, one for code above the image, one for code below the image
    • Theme Editor: Add the ability to Hide/Show Banner and Banner spacing allowing a more flexible implementation of a Mini Gallery for users that want to embed the gallery into an existing Web page (using HTML FRAMES)
    • Theme Editor: Add the ability to change icon files (the new themes have nicer looking icons to match each theme's color but now you can easily use your own graphics for these buttons)
    • Theme Editor: Add the ability change Banner height  (typical themes come with banners that are 50px high; you can now use in the Theme Editor banner graphics that are of any height)

    CHANGES

    • Name change: we have dropped the “!” from Shozam. Removing the exclamation point eliminates any confusion about how to search for the term and it simplifies the use of the word in text
    • Additional built-in themes; from 8 to 20! (including "About this theme" info for each)
    • All Help Files have been revised and updated (still need to elaborate the Overview and Theme Editor help pages)
    • Step 2->Sell Tab->Generated HTML-View Cart button should appear on all gallery pages
    • Rename Google AdSense tab to HTML
    • HTML Intro: Album description texts should work as Hyperlink

    FIXES

    • "Generate modified files only" does not work correctly
    • Error while modifying old themes into the latest Shozam (version1.0.0.5)
    • Error when clicked on back button on Step 5 while modifying a theme
    • Application gives error when clicking on "Back" and "Next" button briskly
    • Problem with Intro animation images cropping
    • Step 5->HTML Tab->Generated HTML-Remove orphan tags
    • Info page does not display images (only cross marks get displayed)
