Could I join in this one please? I too have a friend, who has a large
collection of high-resolution photographs and badly needs to index them.
Not on a website, by the way, just on his PC. Can anyone recommend a
good package? I'm not looking for a ready-made controlled vocabulary;
just a piece of software that gives friendly help with entering the
right metadata. An advantage if one could build up an indexing
vocabulary within it.
Thanks
Stella Dextre Clarke
