I'm guessing you might want to automate
that a little, in a pickup/cleanup after self
when you are done...

Since there are duplicated datastores,
the journal and sqllite, how do you
manage repairs and backup of
sqllite?  dump sqlite to journal
periodically so that it's backed up
in another form/ location?

 When XoPhoto loads, it checks for at least 10 images, (mime_type
 .png,.jpg,.tif). If there're not enough to play around with, load 11.

 This I expect is what happened, I had 2 of my own images, it installed 11 
 more, I deleted 4, ran it again and it installed 11 more.


 The journal images can be deleted pretty easily, when the user is done with
 the (currently non-existent) tutorial  -- just drag the images to the trash,
 and then empty the trash.

 There is no trash in Sugar, its a dropdown menu in Journal to delete.

Unfortunately it saves 11 photos to the journal every time it starts. There is 
no way to easily delete multiple journal items. Suggest that it only saves 
these photos on the first start and maybe only 4 photos.

Hi Tony and all,

This is the way I think XoPhoto works, and does for me on build 850 1.5.

When XoPhoto loads, it checks for at least 10 images, (mime_type
.png,.jpg,.tif). If there're not enough to play around with, load 11. If
there are more than 10, don't load the journal with anything, just create
the thumbnails, and store them away in sqlite database. The storing in the
journal takes time, and the thumbnail generation does also.  Thereafter, at
startup, look for recent images, stop when datastore find returns one you've
already seen (assumes most recent first, which is, I think, the design).

So your observation is interesting.  I haven't experienced multiple copies
of the test images in the journal. I think I would have noticed that,
because I've been working so hard on latency, I've been paying pretty close
attention to delay. I also looked back in my journal, to make sure I wasn't
missing something. But I don't want to discount the possibility that os373
is different.

The journal images can be deleted pretty easily, when the user is done with
the (currently non-existent) tutorial  -- just drag the images to the trash,
and then empty the trash.

Thanks for your help,

George
