Get Photo:
Album - Photo albums allow easy identification and access to images for
viewing, editing, print, etc. Albums do not store the image, they provide
thumbnails that reference the original file. For example, if a thumbnail is
added into an album from a floppy disk, that floppy must be in the drive
in order to view the file.
From File - You can open an image that is stored on your hard drive or any
removable media. Browse to select the desired drive or folder. One you
select it, you’ll see the images within the folder appear as thumbnails on
the screen.
Camera / Scanner - PhotoImpression accepts images acquired via standard
TWAIN devices. Use the drop down list to select the device you want to
use.
Create New - Allows you to create a blank picture to color on.
Screen Capture - Captures a windows screen for editing.
