IDEA: Image Metadata Enhancer/Saver

(1/2) > >>

hcross:
hello everyone

I think it would be awesome to know that everytime I saved an image to my hard drive from the internet there would be some pertinent info stored with the image (ie. right-click on file, properties, summary tab, comments box)

that way I could use an image as a sort of bookmark(favorite) plus I'd never have to wonder where that really cool picture came from

is it possible to use a firefox extension to do this?


come to think of it, I think it would be nice if all files had this sort of self-contained history... thanks for comments

zridling:
As of now, that info is source-dependent. For myself, it would be nice to have a URI associated with a photo to know where to look again for its home.

mouser:
this idea has come up before..
there are tools for saving notes with files.
and there are tools that can auto detect when a new file is created in a certain directory.

i'd love to see someone prepare a list or even a full review of such programs.

I found this also... why this concept is so allusive?

perhaps you could compare this to ID3 tags with MP3's - wonderful if used properly, terrible if not (not all music is Blues)...

oh, well...
