Image storing
As a photographer, and these days, as a digital photographer, I am faced with the problem of 'maintaining my photo library'
Negatives were easy. Negatives were fun. Just drop them in a classifier and write the year, date and subject.
Digital files however....
For a few hundred, there is no problem. But for a few thousand?
How do you classify?
What is your magic tool?
Do you file them by year and by month? Or by subject?
Tell me, help me ;)
Soon I have to get busy with it (yep, I postponed it, and it looks horrifying to start now)
I am thinking of filing everything by year and in that folder a folder by month.
But maybe some of you have a better solution...

Try canto cumulus or extenis portfolio. That might help you.

Je kan je folders best zo benoemen:
2005_04_01 : dus eerst jaartal, dan maand, dan dag. Dan blijft alles mooi geordend staan.
Doe je het omgekeerd, dan gaan alle 01 samen staan, gelijk van welke maand, gelijk van welk jaar...
Sorry als ik dingen vertel die je al wist!!
