Image Catalog Software

[RadiclDreamer]

In need of a piece of software that is either networkable or web based that will allow me to add tags to images and search based on them. Free would be nice, but cheap would work also, this is for a small graphics firm I may be working with.

Picasa? You can tag both your images on your HD and when you upload them to the web.

What is your OS? Vista has 'Windows Photo Gallery' that can tag photos. Also, Picasa does this as well, and has excellent organizational abilities. Damned if I can figure out how to separate pics that have been albumed and ones that haven't though. :|

Picasa 3 does it.

I am looking at something a little larger in scale. Being that this is for a business, they have the potential to grow to many GB worth of data. OS is not important, I'll use whatever is required. I'm really just looking for a name right now

I use Thumbsplus by www.cerious.com . Some folks consider it dated but it's what I'm used to. It uses an Access compatible database structure for tagging.

It's not my primary photo management software (I do my editing in Adobe Lightroom), but Picasa does a very good job of organizing photos into easily accessible galleries, and sorting by tags/type/name/size/date taken/ISO/resolution/almost anything else is very easy. It also makes it extremely easy to upload groups of photos into online galleries with 1GB of free storage. I'm up to a bit over 30GB of photos (about 20K photos) in my Picasa database at the moment and it doesn't have any problem handling the data for the photos.

Right, but it needs to be able to be used by multiple pcs throughout the network.

Thumbsplus is available in a network version.
