Having just got through a hard disk failure by the skin of my teeth (yes I know I should have backed up), I am conscious that it’s not a good idea to keep all my PhotoShop images on the c: drive. I intend to burn them on to CDRs, which is no problem. However I am wondering how best to catalogue and access the stored images, which number about 3 thousand at present.

I have looked at a few photo-organiser type programs, but they don’t seem able to cope with images on removeable media. I need some means of recording the location of each file, which will tell me the right disk to insert for any given image file. Can anyone suggest a suitable program, with a few basic filtering facilities such as keywords? Freeware/shareware would be nice, but I will consider spending money in moderation if necessary!

Thanks in advance,
Kevin

Photoshop Album can archive to CDR, whilst naming the disk and keeping the thumbnails and file locations in the online catalog.

Cheap as chips also

Kevin,

you could try http://www.lyrasoftware.com/disclib/ it’s free and IMHO great for cataloging
disks.
