hi guys ... currently taken thousands of pics and trying very hard to keep things organised

just wondering what sort of software & editing prog you all are using and which is the best

i am currently using elements 4 which is good but the photoshop album part is laggy compared to acdsee 8.

yeah but some are very basic

looking to find one that is fast, easy organise, backup and able to find that one nice pics you took from the thousands on the HD

tried picasa ... nice and fast with simple interface ... quite good actually but a bit basic though

windows explorer - yeah i use that sometimes too but how to tag, search, put in notes etc easily?

but how to add in notes/captions. to me these are necessary so that we remember that kodak moment

well i do put all my pics into folders by date. currently sticking with adobe elements 4 organiser. it's ok but not as fast as acdsee

well just upgrade to the latest v8 ... it's quite good but the interface kinda messy until you get a hang of it.

i am now on with photoshop elements 5 ...... feels more polished than ver4. not bad at all.
