Hi,
Can you tell me what kind of software should I use for organizing photos?
Here are my requirements:
- should be able to handle many photos (right now we are using Picasa on
Ubuntu but for 100 000+ photos it is very slow and unstable)
- should be able to save comments/annotations for the photos (I do not like
Picasa because it uses a special database for that. I would like to have
txt files saved in the same directory where the photos are, or something
similar.)
You can trivially do this with the convert command. Refer to my article.

- should have a full text search feature (search for photos with given
keywords)
This can be easily done. I would guess there would be a third party tool
to do this.
- should run on Windows and FreeBSD. (Actually, I would like to burn
self-starting DVDs, so a Python or Perl based GUI would be great)
I wonder if netpbm or ImageMagick is available in Cygwin or in some
other form in Windows.
Well, if there is a web server based solution, that is fine with me, I need
to burn photos to DVDs and be able to use them.
Can you recommend something from the ports tree? Or should I write my own
program?
You can try this web based solution. I have never tried it, but
apparently it would do a lot of heavy-lifting for you.
