Ease of Use:  

inAlbum Deluxe is broken into five easy-to-navigate tabs: Collect Photo, Edit Photo, Customize Template, Decorate Show and Music and Settings. These tabs take you through the entire slideshow creation process, which, albeit easy, is fairly limited.

Design Features:  

Although inAlbum Deluxe doesn’t offer many of the features we looked for, it does offer a full template designer—which lets you customize buttons, borders, colors and so on—and you can also add clipart to any of the slides. We found both of these features very useful and honestly, quite fun.

Input/Output:  

InAlbum exports as a DVD, Screensaver or CD and even as a Flash movie or AVI. However, it lacks High Definition quality or widescreen aspect ratio.

Slideshow Quality:  

The picture quality of inAlbum 2.5 Deluxe is relatively good. You can also add custom templates for an even better looking slideshow.

Help/Support:  

inAlbum Deluxe offers help and support in the form of a help manual, tutorials, FAQs, and technical support via email. But, if you’re the type of person that likes to have an operator available for assistance, then this product isn’t for you.

inAlbum Deluxe is a highly-capable program for creating basic slideshows, but simply can’t produce when it comes to making richer, more professional-level shows. For professional-grade features and quality, look to the top-rated Magix Xtreme Photostory on CD & DVD.
