ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a digital album having a hard drive and built-in scanner configured to scan photographic prints or documents. The digital album allows a user to save the photographic prints or scanned documents as digital images on the hard drive, or another medium, and then view individual images or play photo album slideshows comprising a plurality of digital images. Additionally, a user may upload digital images from an external medium to the hard drive of the photo album, and then view those images and/or include them in a playlist. The digital album of the present invention advantageously allows a user to scan photographic prints or documents, upload or download digital images, and view digital images individually or in an album format, in a substantially automated manner and without the need for complex peripheral devices.
