So I am getting into this color thing with my Prism. Hey I paid for it

So which do you people prefer to use for your photo albums�the Album To Go program or the Handspring Photo Album?

Which is easier to use and looks better?

I like Handspring Photo album, because I can make separate album and move the album that I don't need to my CF card.

splash photo

Neither HSPA and ATG seems to do a good job of preprocessing my images for display on the Prism's screen. I have been using both for over a month, but I've never been happy with the jagged color transitions.

Splash Photo seems to do a much better job. It seems to use the color depth to it's fullest, making the display seem higher resolution than its actual 160x160.

Of course, Splash is $20.

Thanks everyone....I tired all three, and your right about Splash Photo...it seems to be the best depth wise. I guess thats why each photo takes up twice a much as the other guys.

ATG has been updated to version 2.0 and includes features of HSPA, Fireviewer and improvements on the original all wrapped up into one.

Check it out for yourself at:

This is my fourth attempt at raving about ATG, and each time it has gotten shorter. Sorry but in this case, seeing is truly believing. Check it out!

< note: Only the Windows version is available for download right now >

ATG has a really cool user interface, splashphoto still produces the best picture on the Prism because it uses the entire screen.

However, if cost is an issue and do not want to pay the $19, ATG is the better option (versus Handsprings software)

Review of Photo Album Apps?

Wow! Just tried out SplashPhoto and what a difference! Has anyone done a review of all the different photo album applications out there? I'll get a basic comparison list started from what little experimentation I've done:

SplashPhoto: $20.00, 16-bit color support, full-screen image, ok desktop GUI, excellent photo conversion
HSPhoto Album: Free, 16-bit color support, no full-screen image, minimal desktop GUI, ok photo conversion
EyeMod2/Eyedrop: Free, 16-bit color support, no full-screen image, minimal desktop GUI, ok photo conversion
AlbumToGo: Free, 16-bit color support, full-screen image, good desktop GUI, ok photo conversion
MGI PhotoSuite Mobile Edition: $25.00, ...
FireViewer: Free, ...
MyAlbum: $8.00, ...
PocketPhoto: $20.00, ...

Of course, a real review would have to have actual screenshots, and include more details like desktop features, desktop conversion time, compression, handheld viewer performance, zoom/panning, slideshows...

Now we just need to find someone with a LOT of time on his or her time to review all these! =)

I always resize my photos manually to 160x120 with Photoshop.

I just try it again and now i don't need to resize my picture to 160*120 again.
