The LabPrints Template / Flush Album Designer allows you to create composite images for use in flush albums, greeting cards, magazine covers, or even custom vignettes.

Included in the Template / Flush Album Designer are over 300 templates that you can use right out of the box or modify as you see fit. You also have the ability to create your own templates from scratch or import Photoshop PSD files as the building blocks for templates that you can reuse as often as you like. You can rotate each template 90, 180, or 270 degrees, and flip it vertically or horizontally to make the combinations of layouts almost limitless!

The Template / Flush Album Designer gives you the freedom to add, remove, and even move image nodes as you are designing your composite image. You have the ability to add drop shadows, change opacity, and add borders and tints to images in your composites. Best of all, Bay Photo will be able to individually color correct the images used in your composite before we print them!

The Template / Flush Album Designer is a component of the Digital Studio LP software, and you receive a 30 day free demo to trial the software. The cost to register this component is $149.99.
