ALBUMART PRESENTS SITEMAP

LumaPix FotoFusion software to make your Flush/Book Album more affordable.

Most of the cost of these type albums have been in the photographer's time in designing your custom album.

For two years we have had so many inquiries regarding flush/book albums that it has been amazing. Interest is high and continues to grow! But the sad fact is few can afford them. Usually we never hear back from folks after sending the prices.

The highest cost in production is the photographer's time to custom design your album. Well worth it indeed. The photographer/artist implements their vision to complete a great product just for you! Some design manually using PhotoShop and others use expensive software designed for Pro Photographers. The cost is prohibitive and knowledge needed to actually use these software programs has a steep learning curve. The talent, hard work, time and a multitude of other factors is the reason they are worth their price.

But now enter AlbumArt clients who have their CD's of images or scans from negatives. Your photographer prefers to not do albums. You are stuck. In most cases you can't afford AlbumArt to do your album design.

Until now! Enter....

David Ziser, master photographer, comments: "FotoFusion revolutionizes a huge part of the workflow for digital photographers. After testing FotoFusion for a few months I literally 'stopped the presses' on our current PhotoShop-intensive workflow, and made a hard right hand turn to a FotoFusion workflow. Staff was "team trained" in a day. Our first wedding project was completed in 1/10 our typical production time, and album pages are now literally created in a few minutes. Retouching, color adjustments, image edges and page design are performed effortlessly. The results are unbelievably easy to attain and a joy to behold. You absolutely must own FotoFusion Pro v3.0"

Existing FotoFusion users are entitled to upgrade for as little as $19.95, or at no charge if they purchased FotoFusion after January 17 2004.

REVIEWS:

"Absolutely wonderful - A gem" I am a retired high school teacher who is constantly on the lookout for new picture processing and album creation software. I have looked at a lot of programs including Adobe Photo Album, Picasca, Photoshop, PageMaker and many more obscure examples. I also pride myself on NOT spending much of my own money on software. FotoFusion is an absolute gem. It is stable, easy to use, with tremendous support and what comes out of your printer is superb . When you call the toll free number for support you actually talk to a real person. Imagine that. I have saved the cost of the program in paper and ink by not making mistakes a long time ago. I rarely get this excited about a piece of software but this is one you will like. If you own a digital camera you will want this program. - Don Schultz

"Fabulous product" Found this product at a professional tradeshow and it does more than other programs that cost three times what it does! This is a phenomenal product for professional photographers, artists or just consumers. It is dummy-proof! Click a button and output awesome image collages instantaneously. I highly recommend this product to everyone. - MJ Wilson

"Excellent product that is fun to use" Wonderful product that performs as advertised and is a joy to use (easy and intuitive). I wish all SW was this good. - Rainer "A Fantastic tool for your photo collection" This is a brilliant, and to my knowledge unique, program, powerfull yet really easy to use. It worked great on my old P11 1.1mhz but I have just upgraded to a P4 3.06 and the speed in which it processes the collage is amazing. I would recommend this program to anyone who has a number of photos stored on their PC. You wont be dissapointed. - Playingthegame

"Superb product that delivers!" I bought and downloaded this program and within 15 minutes after installation I created my first collage of 42 pics. This is truely a product that does what it is advertised to do. Very user friendly! If collages is what you want to do this is the program for you. - Stan

Pack your prints in bubble wrap with 2" of foam on all six sides of prints. Then use large box. Fed Ex Three Day Super Saver helps track the prints and allow them to arrive safely unbent.

TIPS:

  • TRIM TOLERANCE: Leave 3/8" to 1/2" around the outside edges of your design for the album company to trim the edges of the print to make the album a "flush" style album. So place type and important picture elements within this safe zone or "get what you get".
  • COLOR BALANCE your monitor to your lab of choice. You want to get prints that match what you see on your monitor. If you don't color manage your monitor expect average to lousy color prints! Monitor tips will be added in next few days. Check back.
  • LAB: We suggest MPIX to do your prints, Easy to upload. They are a pro lab and keep consistent processing so your prints will match your monitor over time. They make wallets to 20x30's. Use Kodak Lustre Paper unsprayed or mounted.
