This provides multiple search criteria. <br /><br />I'm in the same boat. 10 years worth of photos and only dates to define.

Generally, I put photos in monthly folders ("Oct 09")unless there's an event that goes for a few months ("Summer 07") or I want to keep all of one thing together ("house pictures"- includes pics of kitchen remodel and yard work, etc)<br /><br />Good luck!<br />SSharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01986867968917781286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25149175.post-71727915464956409322009-10-20T00:45:23.183-05:002009-10-20T00:45:23.183-05:00OK, looks like Picasa is getting the most votes he...OK, looks like Picasa is getting the most votes here. I'll try it out first and see how that works.<br /><br />And rest assured, I've already backed up my hard drive to my external, my Dad has another copy of the old files, and as soon as I get the photos organized, I'm burning everything to DVDs.

I don't know what it's like now as that was over five years ago, but at the time, I liked it.<br /><br />Check out alternativeto.net, they list alternatives to various programs with a Digg-style voting system. (I just looked for alternatives to Windows Live Album and Picasa is absolutely destroying the competition.)The Oceanside Animalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16894063884048051561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25149175.post-29334309980685722482009-10-19T22:23:29.198-05:002009-10-19T22:23:29.198-05:00LOL!

I can't imagine trying to re-organize my photos now into a new system!<br /><br />You could try Picasa: http://picasa.google.com/<br /><br />And as my dad, the nerdy it guy always says, BACKUP YOUR BACKUP. I lost ALL my photographs and all the anime I downloaded a few years back when my hard-drive went kaput and took my backup drive with it. Now I have my dad do a ghost image every few months, and I have a 3rd drive for a backup of my backup.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14977410602426080310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25149175.post-279371175995968352009-10-19T16:43:21.206-05:002009-10-19T16:43:21.206-05:00We are organized like you are - let us all know wh...We are organized like you are - let us all know when you find the better way!Janet, Gus, & Graciehttp://www.jprairiedogs.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25149175.post-57244383262268354382009-10-19T15:48:32.777-05:002009-10-19T15:48:32.777-05:00Haha!

I think I organize mine just like you were saying, I don't have vista, so I don't know if they have more/better options.<br /><br />But I just saw an Apple commercial last night that makes me want a mac now. It comes with software program that recognizes faces, so when you program one face, it'll find all other photos with that face in it and tag it for you.Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11152839908178506343noreply@blogger.com
