Hi, I'd like to organize my photos mostly like that : YYYY/MM - Event name/ or YYYY/MM - MMMM/Event name or eventually (for sorting purpose) YYYY/MM - MMMM/DD - Event name
[because it would be easier to find a single photo from outside shotwell] So, for me, a single pattern for directory naming is just a (good) starting point at import. The final organisation will depend on the number of different events in the month (that I only knowns afterwards and so I need to correct it then). For example, if I only take 1 or 2 events in february, I don't want a february subdirectory, '2011/02 - Event name' is sufficient. For 5-6 events, '2011/02 - February/Event name' is better. For more than 10 events, '2011/02 - February/DD - Event name' may be more practical. Also, all my photos are not related to events. So each year I have themed directories (landscapes, animals, others ...) that don't respect the previous hierarchy. Well to summarize : - the 3 possibilities above are sufficient for me, - + the ability to move or easily change/adapt afterwards the hierarchy (or move single photos), within shotwell or outside if shotwell can monitor the changes. And thanks for that good software. _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
