Support ist dropped. There will be no updates in the future for this app.
You can still download version 3.0.7 on the page (http://www.xtralean.com/xtralean-software/) and type on the license manager simple a "free" (without quotes), to get the full version.

Version: 3.0.6
I have Rapidweaver, but it is limited in the thumbnail handling for what I wanted to do, I also have and use jAlbum.
I do use Rapidweaver for other sites, but Shutterbug works perfectly for a photogallery with really easier formatting of thumbnails and layout, and the more that I dig in the more I like it. Sure there are some things that I'd like a little better but for the cost and ease of use... it's darn good and has it's place amongst the other website applications.

Version: 3.0.6
Usually, I always find something good to say about a software...
I'm a Rapidweaver user. Never found better, even though I'd like to find a simple tool, dedicated to productivity, like a text editor that doesn't require any coding AT ALL.
So, I tried Shutterbug.
Gee! Couldn't get it.
Interface is awfully ugly and out of date, text options are... ridiculous. navigation with unnecessary clicks, use of templates is puzzling...
Pagestyles are unique (no, really. Only one kind: picture(s)+text. The legend says you can embed other medias. But really, I didn't like it enough to bother looking for this hidden gem)
Could have been great, like, 20 years ago.

Version: 3.0.3
The latest version 3.0 seems more like 2.7 at best. The biggest omission still is a lack of undo. In the day and age of multiple undos, the lack of even a single undo seems very, very dated.
From their online manual dates 2006-2009:
"Revert: The revert feature lets you revert back to one of the previous Saves you made in the event you make a mistake . . . Undo will be added to a future version of ShutterBug."
I bought two copies two years ago: one for me and one for a client for self-maintenance.
It worked okay for what I needed to do at the time, but without undo, it kills any creative flow, and it constantly put me on edge fearing that I'd screw up the layout, or worse.
