2 Introduction module : Basic skills for programming

2.1 Album Easy 4.2.1 on the computer

The program Album Easy is freeware and is downloadable for various operating systems:

https://www.thestampweb.com/albumeasy/download

Once the program is on the computer, an icon will appear on your screen:

2.2 Open Album Easy 4.2.1

By clicking the icon, the program will open, you'll see an empty page and a pop-up window, giving you the tip of the day.

You can click on 'next tip' to get another one, or click 'close', to close it.
If you don't want to see those tips whenever you open the program, you can deselect the option : 'show tips at startup'.

You need to close the 'tip of the day' anyhow, in order to start the program.

On the top line with possibilities, we see a grey arrow, and an 'open' folder. Both icons are in colo(u)r, and clickable. The next two are in grey, and not usable as long as we haven't created anything.

When we click the grey arrow, we see a list of recently added pages. By clicking the 'open' folder, we can search in our computer to find all pages we made or saved.

It is useful to make a subfolder with all pages belonging to one theme or country. Also pictures, backgrounds, drawings, .... can be put together. This will be easier for us to find items back, and the program will run much smoother too.
