Scrapbook MAX introduces the first digital scrapbooking software program to combine an archival quality, sub-pixel precision graphics engine with unique digital scrapbooking features, effects and ease-of-use. Together these features help scrapbookers preserve family memories forever, while saving both time and money over traditional paper scrapbooking methods.

(PRWEB) July 12, 2010 -- Scrapbook MAX v2.05 is the first digital scrapbooking software program to combine ease of use with an archival quality graphics engine. The speed and sub-pixel precision of this innovative scrapbooking technology allows scrapbookers of all levels to create unique digital scrapbooking pages, and maintain a professional-quality archive of their designs.

The award-winning Scrapbook MAX software is easy-to-use, including all the tools of "traditional" paper scrapbooking. Like working with paper and scissors, scrapbookers can lay out, arrange, layer and "cut out" digital photos and embellishments. The new high-powered graphics engine adds further creative options. Users can now bend and stretch text, and fill characters with patterns and images. Photos and elements can be accurately re-colored with a color-picker tool, and users have complete control over the angle, distance and color of shadows. Additionally, a new eraser tool allows scrapbookers to extract people and objects from photos with precision, or add artistic blurred edges to photos and embellishments.

"Digital scrapbooking is all about preserving your memories and having fun while you do it," says Scrapbook MAX Public Relations Director Karin Adams. "Scrapbookers have told us what they want in a digital scrapbooking program - something that's easy to use, but totally creative and offers professional results. With our focus on an intuitive but artistic design experience and archival quality output, that's exactly what Scrapbook MAX v2 delivers."

With the wide variety of publishing options that are included, Scrapbook MAX users can now develop a professional quality archive of their scrapbooks. "We know that one of the most important goals for scrapbookers is to preserve their memories for the future," says Adams. "The professional-quality publishing options included in Scrapbook MAX v2 let you keep your memories safe. You can enjoy your scrapbooks today, and have the security of knowing that generations to come will enjoy them, too."

Users can make high-resolution prints on their home printers, order professional prints and photobooks, or turn their pages into creative slideshows and movies. Additionally, support for generating JPG, TIF and PNG images makes sharing through email, blogs, Facebook and other social networking sites and the free online Scrapbook MAX web gallery possible.

To coincide with the release of the new version of Scrapbook MAX, the Scrapbook MAX website at http://www.scrapbookmax.com has been redesigned with an attractive new layout that makes finding product information and support easy. Free step-by-step tutorials including video demonstrations are available, as well as a free online digital scrapbooking community forum where users can find tips, tricks, fun scrapbooking challenges, and scrapbooking items shared by fellow scrapbookers. Users also have access to a comprehensive digital scrapbooking kits and templates store, featuring a selection of thousands of downloadable designs by top digital scrabook designers made to import directly into Scrapbook MAX software.

Scrapbook MAX v2.05 sells for $59.95 (US$) and can be purchased at select retailers or online at www.scrapbookmax.com. Scrapbook MAX v2 is compatible with Microsoft Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows XP. A free 30-day trial download is available from the company's website.
