I have literally hundreds of photos on my computer and an 8gb USB stick filled with more. I really must organise them all and get myself sorted as I take stacks of photos every week.
Some people label every photo but it would take me about a year to do that. I’m not exactly sure how I should organise them though – do I have a folder for each month or a folder for each event (although baking a cake does not exactly warrant it’s own folder) or is there a better way that I haven’t thought of?
Thanks for sharing your way, it sounds very organised and just what I am after. I just need to get around to doing it lol….
I am the same for taking photo's and had the same dilemma a few years ago. I decided on a file per event and name them by number first then name and date ie file 1 Surfing Aug 31 2009. By giving a file number it keeps them in chronological order on your PC and you can archive them in a separate folder once they have been blogged. I know, I'm mad – but it works for me, and I am always able to find a single event years later, so it definitely works LOL
