It's late Sunday evening now and I haven't gotten around to sorting through our latest pictures yet — around 250 of them. I wish the software would make it easier to help me mark the best pictures and then copy them into a separate folder so that I can downsample them using my Photoshop droplet. I use the ImageBrowser software that came with my Canon PowerShot G1 camera which is good in some areas and bad in others. ImageBuddy for Mac OS X and 9 has a neat grading system but when I tried it, importing pictures was slow (and why can't I just select a folder to work from?). It certainly shows some promise though. I do hope to get around to adding more photos to our Gallery section within the next few days.
By the way, I think I'm going to start to use the term "pictures" instead of "photos" when referring to pictures taken by my digital camera since the images are not actually recorded on light-sensitive photographic paper like traditional photographs are. "Digital photos" sounds okay though but it's too long. Still, "photos" implies a picture taken from a camera and not just a drawing or something like that. Hmmm... well, I guess I'm still undecided. What do you think?
