My wife is getting serious about trying to organize all our photos. I have most of them scanned and the past several years have all been digital. So on the plus side, we can work in one medium for the moment.
She would like to organize images by child, by event, by date, etc. Then be able to access the images for some type of use - printing, making galleries, making scrapbooks electronically, etc. So there would need to be other programs to "import" an image and she would need to be able to find it. So if the organization was in a proprietary file or something, external programs may not be able to deal with it. That would make the organizing less useful. So once organized, she might say, "I want to make a gallery of the highlights of the past year." So whatever software we use to make online galleries would be loaded and she would want to find all the files for the past year and browse through and choose some for the gallery. Or she might say "I want prints of the last ice skating competition." She would need to be able to find the photos and put them on disk or some directory for uploading or some such. We are using Windows XP - so the organizing software would need to work with it. Any ideas would be helpful. -- Best regards, Bruce -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
