Hi guys... not sure if this is in the right forum, because this isn't really a professional photography question... so be gentle!
I currently have several hundred digital pics on my PC that I've wanted to organize for a long time now. Basically, whenever I moved the images from the camera, I'd make a folder in XP with the date for the name. At first this was fine, because if I knew 'around the time' I took the picture, I could find it easier.
Now as time has gone on, I have a tons of 'dated folders' in my My Pictures folder that just looks like a mess. Would iPhoto be a good solution if I moved everything over to the mac? Or is that Apeture a better way to go?
Like I said before, this isn't professional, this is just for home/family/friends pictures. I guess regardless of PC or mac, I'd have to go thru each photo manually to tag n' bag it?
Sorry for the newbness of my questions, I've had a Mac Mini I bought a while ago, and just recently dusted it off; trying to give myself a reason to use it.
Thanks for ANY info!!
