In the recent weeks, I often get some feedbacks to report a problem of the JetPhoto Studio Mac application crashing while geotagging (locating photos with GPS tracks automatically).
Now we have found this problem is caused due to the WebKit handling the google map view embedded in JetPhoto Studio.
Is your Safari version is 4? Now we suggest you can still use a stable version 3 instead, or you need download a fix for this Safari 4 compatibility issue. WebKit is the foundation of Safari, you updated your Safari, the WebKit will also be updated. The present version of JetPhoto Studio should work properly with Safari 3, but did find the application crashing with Safari 4.
If you now use Safari 4 on your Mac, please download a bug-fixed version:

I am looking for kmi electro, our old friend who gave us lots of helps to make JetPhoto Studio French localizations. However I lost any connection to him since July last year when kmi translated JetPhoto Studio for Windows version 3.13 and told me he’d like to move to another place in France. I can’t get his responses through email or msn, and no information about him I can hear in the past months.
Please leave a message if you know any information about kmi, or just let him know I am finding him.
Merci beaucoup!

JetPhoto Studio supports geotagging since its first release. How are the things progressed for the new version 4.5? Geotagging enables locating photos on maps, now the new JetPhoto Studio will support marking camera directions as well as camera positions for your photos.
Now more new digital cameras have built-in GPS units or the interface connecting to external GPS accessories. Some GPS units, like Nikon GP-1 and Solmeta N1, enable both camera position and camera direction recoding. Beside the GPS chipset, a direction sensor (electronic compass) is also assembed in the GPS unit. The camera position (latitude/longitude/altitude) and the camera direction (lens heading) will be saved in image EXIF tags automatically while taking a shot. JetPhoto Studio can import the photo files including all these tags.
Of course, you can also set the camera directions (lens headings) for your photos manually with JetPhoto Studio if you don’t have a compass-enabled GPS unit. In “Point photo location on map” window, you can just click the central target to begin the camera direction adjusting for any photo saved in your albums.
After that, the direction markers will appear in Geotag panel, Map view and all Google Map Galleries and Google Earth KML/KMZ files generated by JetPhoto Studio! Hope that will be a new toy you enjoy 
Other New Features in JetPhoto Studio version 4.5
- Address Lookup (reverse geocoding)
Add photo notes automatically by photo locations. This program works with Google Map Reverse Geocoding service, translates photo locations on the map into human-readable address and write them in photo notes.
- Flash Slideshow Timing Control
When you make Flash movies (standalone mode) with your photos, the new program enables options to allow users to set the duration and interval for each slide while playing Flash slideshows.
(JetPhoto Studio v4.5 for Mac has been released June 1st, and the Windows version will come later.)
The Flash galleries are enhanced in JetPhoto Studio version4.3. Now you can put your Flash galleries in any container html pages. This way is just like adding a YouTube player in your web page.
We have redesigned icons and user interface for JetPhoto Studio. There is a gallery to show some changes in JetPhoto Studio version 4.3.
a new JetPhoto Studio icon shown on dock
a new album thumbnail view with a dark background (you can select dark or light background as need)
