Media Center Plus is a powerful archiving system for your media files. It includes search capabilities, merging albums, sending images or thumbnails by email, printing an album, creating web pages, publishing images to Jasc Studio Avenue and more. You can import images directly from your scanner or digital camera.

Media Center Plus also allows you to set up your default media file editing software for quick access if you need to touch up an image or thumbnail.

Media Center Plus creates all the thumbnails for you and places them in a directory you specify saving all that time you would normally spend creating the thumbnails one by one. When I tried this it was mere seconds and 288 images were thumb-nailed and cataloged. 

There are a lot of things that Media Center Plus does but one which really caught my eye was the ability to create html files automatically. It takes only seconds to set up and process. It took just seconds to create all the web pages necessary to show all 288 of the images in my album. Jasc included only one html template with the software, but will be making other templates available on their site. The template that is there sets up a very organized set of html files using frames.

If you have lots of media files and need a way to keep track of them, Media Center Plus is the software to have. It's inexpensive and powerful. Run over to Jasc Software and get a copy.
