I need suggestions for some kind of image management software. I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for. It's for keeping genealogy stuff organized. Basically, I want something so that I can take a bunch of image files, and type up notes about each one. I also need to be able to search the notes. I'm sure this is something simple, but I can't think of what it would be called to be able to google it.
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
For costume design/costume shop purposes, I have used excel for this (putting the picture in a cell, and then using the columns to the right for specifics (character, price, etc). It was pretty clunky, but it did work.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think database software like MS Access would be better for stuff like that than a spreadsheet.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Wait, doesn't Picasa let you tag images and search by tag? I haven't done anything with Picasa in several years, so I may be mis-remembering.

Is there a character limit for the tags? The images I'm talking about are scans of handwritten documents, and I want to be able to attach a transcription to each one.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
There's Flickr, which is less user-friendly than it used to be, but you could have a private account, and put the transcription in the image description.

I want to have it on my hard drive, not online.

It looks like StudioLine Photo Basic [link] might be able to do what I want.
