SellFolio: First software for stunning web and CD photo presentations in 15 minutes

Lake Forest, IL 3/7/05 - Just as digital camera users wanted better photo editing capabilities, digital camera and photo editor users now want better ways to present their photos.  With SellFolio, anyone who can read English and browse for a file in Windows can create a multimedia photo portfolio in minutes.  According to Russ McNeilly, SellFolio VP of Sales and Marketing, “SellFolio users just add photos, text and sound for a stunning multimedia portfolio literally in minutes.  After people do photo editing in their favorite software, the smart next step is to take the photos they edited and show them off in a beautiful SellFolio presentation.”  Now with new SellFolio 3.0, users get more communications power, with the ability to add background music, narrations, web links and .PDF documents for a very rich media experience.  A downloadable trial version of SellFolio is available on www.sellfolio.com.

SellFolio is a cost-effective solution, yet produces results that look like the user spent thousands on custom multimedia. Now with SellFolio, users can do things that they can’t easily do even with simple presentation software:
* Digital Business Cards
* Virtual Tours
* Photo Galleries
* Promotional CDs

SellFolio easily helps users create multimedia portfolios with the highest quality look and feel. With step-by-step screens, users select a design style, create the subject modules of their portfolio and add photos with captions. They can even include before and after photos. SellFolio comes with an excellent tutorial that shows how to use SellFolio, including helpful advice and portfolio ideas. Then the user’s finished portfolio will feature:
* a stunning visual look-and-feel
* an animated promotional introduction
* an interactive main menu
* modules that display portfolio images and text
* pages of descriptive information, with web links and .PDF document
downloads
* contact information

Once users have completed their portfolio, SellFolio has three easy means to help them show their products and services: directly from their desktop or laptop, burn to a CD, or via the Internet. According to Steve McNeilly, SellFolio VP of Technology, “Users can easily take their SellFolio presentation along on the laptop, and provide leave-behind CDs after their presentation. Then, email the website location to anyone they wish. With a link from ViewWork.com or their own website, users can show their photos from the Internet.”
