Hi All, I have just tried out Shotwell (I installed Ubuntu 10.10) and was hoping that it would be better than F-Spot which I could never get working.
As some background, I use iPhoto for my photo organisation, It meets my needs, but doesn't run on Ubuntu. After playing with Shotwell for a few minutes (maybe 10 after importing the photo's from my phone) I realised that it is very close to being able to replace iPhoto for my needs. So here's a big pat on the back for the developers who have obviously worked very hard at making this great software. I went to your web site to post a suggestion / feature request, but this was the only place I could find to do so. Here are my suggestions (both should be easy): 1) create a a feature request page for people to request features / make suggestions without having to subscribe to the mailing list. 2) when Importing, import videos as well as photo's, this shouldn't be too hard, just a tweak to the download mechanism, and have the software be able to pass the video to a player app (you already do this with an image editor) Ideally a preview image of the video would be great, but I could wait for that and would be happy with a generic movie image to start with. The second suggestion is all I really wanted to suggest. Thanks, Dave. _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
