I'm *certain* that these are within the use-case of a photo manager. I'd like to see an "advanced" button in the import window that allows stuff like extension filtering. A simple tickbox for "Remove existing tags" or something would allow one to solve the 'overzealous friend' problem. I occasionally have this problem with photos friends send me too. -Ian _______________________________________________ Shotwell mailing list [email protected] http://lists.yorba.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/shotwell
