Groovesome – I like the thinking patterns here:
1 – ID an issue
2 – search for a solution
3 – et voila!
In less than a year of digital imagery I gues I have acquired between 500 to 1,000 images. I really have no intention for these to whizz around indefintely on a hard drive with maybe even further compression being applied on the fly.
However! I have a solution of sorts – very pragmatic of course.
Resize prime images using a PowerToy (yes! It works gloriously and it is free) say to (Medium). Keep these on hard drive then burn the originals to CD – say a rapid prayer – then delete the originals from hard drive. Cool innit?
This way I can abuse my album software variants, plug in key words (when I may be assed ahich is usually about 5% of the time) (BTW for our cousins @assed’ usually means a wonderful combination of be bothered and be motivated) (I mention this just in case!)
So when I need an image I do a keyword search, turn up with the (Medium) copy of the prime – oh I forgot to say I rename by appending CD20 for -erm- compact disk 20 in the archive.
I guess there are better ways?
