DVgate

digital photo album.
PictureGear helps you organise
your digital images and allows

your images. You can easily
decorate and add notes to digital
photos using playful tools and
stamps. Then instantly send your
hand decorated photos as email
attachments.
DigitalPrint
DigitalPrint makes it easy and
enjoyable to print photos and labels.
Simply select the photos you like
from the thumbnail view, specify the
number of copies and sheet size,
preview the results and press “print”.
Clipart and colourful stamps let you
give them extra personality as well
as print original albums. To create
labels for various media including
CD-R, just follow the easy to

images from a Digital Handycam
connected via i.LINK cable, then
attach them to email. Fixed Point
Observation mode lets you take
images automatically at intervals
with a Web camera. Keep an eye
on home or pets while you
re out,
or upload images in real time to a
web site!
SonicStage
SonicStage lets you record the
best tracks from your CDs or the
Internet* and store them on your
hard disk for playback whenever
you like. And when you want your
music “to go”, just “check out” the
tracks onto a Memory Stick or
create an original compilation CD
with the CD-RW drive on your VAIO.
It’s a personal way to manage and
enjoy your music collection.
