Jo: Is there a problem with iView Media Pro 2 on OSX 10.3 ? I wasn't aware of that. If you are still using iView Media Pro 1.5x (that does work on OS9 unless you are writing metadata to TIFFs and trying to view IPTC in PS7) then yes, you'll have to upgrade. According to their website, "iView MediaPro is now Mac OS 10.3 compatible and delivers feature improvements and significant enhancements. Version 2.0.1 is free to all registered MediaPro 2.0 users." If you are already familiar with iView, I'd stick with that. Otherwise you might give the Photoshop CS "filebrowser" a twirl. It's been enhanced since version 7, and many are finding it sufficient to work with. David -- Creating an image database? be sure to visit (http://ControlledVocabulary.com/)!
