Roger, One possibility (of many) you may want to investigate is NetExposure Image Portal. We are building our DAM in NetEx to match some of the same needs that you mention: keep the files on our own server, web access to the DAM allowing for easy implementation for many users. Also, important to us, SQL database underpinnings with reasonably good communication with TMS. Erik

I've been looking into Microsoft's Expression Media application, but would like something with a web-based browsing ability. Another requirement is that we don't have to move the files off-site, such as with using something like Flickr. I would like them to sit on our server and be accessible via a web-browser so that we can just link to these images from our website. Any suggestions? Thanks, Roger ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2007 14:35:06 -0400 From: Jeff Evans <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [MCN-L] Image Server?

Its a simple-dimple web or NAS based appliance, that will allow you to link images, and view your files online. Images and metadata only, though. www.seefile.com Jeff Jeffrey Evans Digital Imaging Specialist Princeton University Art Museum 609.258.8579 On Oct 24, 2007, at 2:16 PM, Roger Zender wrote: > > Hi Everyone, > > I'm looking for suggestions on how your institutions are managing > images.
