Photo organization
huevosgrandes | Apr 9 2006
After only a few years of taking interest in capturing the world about me, I have realized a big problem: To take a good photos requires taking many photos, but many photos means lots of space and more importantly a nearly unsearchable library. Here is the main point: How does one retain a useful searchable library of photos. Can a GTD type reference section be build from photos in an easy way? The main classification I have for photos are: Some photos fall into several of these, so crossreference is needed. The programs I'm trying are iPhoto6 (I had 1-2 but they crashed with more then 1-2000 pics) and iView. But I still find that I want an IN Box type format to remember which need sorting etc... Ideas? 7 Comments

 IPTC tooSubmitted by riverjack on April 10, 2006 - 7:37pm.
Another part of my workflow in iPhoto that I forgot to mention was the use of the scripts at http://scriptbuilders.net/files/iphotoiptckeywordimportexportutilities1.0.html. Though not as robust as some of these other editors, it will take the keywords I've applied to my photos in iPhoto and put those keywords into the comments field of the IPTC metadata of the original file. It can also take date out of IPTC and convert it into iPhoto keywords. » POSTED IN:
