Learn how to create photo albums in Elements Organizer.

About albums

Albums in Elements Organizer are like physical photo albums, where you can store and organize photos in groups of your choice. For example, you can create an album called “Ten Best Vacation Photos” and add ten of your favorite images.

You can drag the photos within an album to arrange them in any order you want. You can add a photo to more than one album.

You can organize albums in groups. You can also create multiple levels of album categories. For example, you can have an album category titled “My Asia Trip,” containing the album “Ten Best Japan Photos,” along with another album called “Ten Best China Photos,” and so on, for each country in Asia you visited.

Instead of manually selecting photos for including in an album, you can create Saved Searches with criteria for selecting photos. Each Saved Search is an album that dynamically collects photos that match the criteria specified for the Saved Search. For example, if the criterion for a Saved Search is to collect photos with the keyword tag ‘Chiara”, you can open the Saved Search to view all photos with the keyword tag ‘Chiara”.

Creating albums and album categories

You can create, edit, and manage albums in the Albums panel in the left panel of Elements Organizer.

  • View albums and album categories. Scroll up and down the list of albums, as needed. Click the triangle  beside an album category to expand or collapse the albums under it.

Create instant albums using folder names

You can automatically create an instant album with the same name as a folder on your hard disk.

Album structures contain the album names and album categories created by you. You can save your current set of albums and album category names, including their organization in the Albums panel and their icons. This structure can be shared with other users.

You can share album structures with others by exporting or importing them. For example, you have a set of albums representing different museums you’ve visited with friends. By saving and exporting your album set, your friends, who have also visited those museums, can import that album structure (not the photos in it) and use it for their photos. Alternately, you can import the album structure of one of your friends and apply it to your photos.
