Hi Shozam-team, When creating albums, changing the template when adding a new albums applies the template to the entire set of albums. It provides consistency across the the general presentation. Suggestion: would it make sense to have an option allowing the user to select a template for each album? Explanation: tihs option could be divided in two part. First, when on the main album list page,cliking on the album thumbnail won't jump to the gallery but would display the main page for this album with that template. This way we have an overview of the gallery. In that case, we may need more options for the user (+ random choice) for selecting picutres in the overview and adding more test picture to 'present' the content. Second, when jumping to the gallery, then the gallery would be displayed as today but with the appropriate template. Sometimes, a unique consistent template is appropriate. Sometimes, you may select a different way of presenting picture i.e. template related to picture content.

I'd add this to the wish list. My initial perspective is from that of photography in which the prints have two basic formats: vertical (portrait) and horizontal (landscape) unless one chooses to trim/cut a photographic print to a custom size (which I do not). I am also a relatively new user, and find that some of the themes that I like are not well suited for portrait/vertical orientation, but a high percentage of my images are vertical.

Shozam has a problem? It is such a good utility program, that we users can always think of ways to add new features. Accommodating vertical images is hig on my priority wish list .

As an afterthought to earlier posting, vertical vs. horizontal themes, my comments apply in the most part to the intro screen itself. Individual pages and views are well accommodated in both horizontal and vertical formats.
