digiKam is an advanced digital photo management application for KDE, which makes
|
|
|
|
|
importing and organizing digital photos a "snap". The photos are organized in
|
|
|
|
|
albums which can be sorted chronologically, by folder layout or by custom
|
|
|
|
|
collections.

You tag your images which can be spread out across multiple folders, and digiKam
|
|
|
|
|
provides fast and intuitive ways to browse these tagged images. You can also add
|
|
|
|
|
comments to your images. digiKam makes use of a fast and robust database to
|
|
|
|
|
store these meta-informations which makes adding and editing of comments and
|
|
|
|
|
tags very reliable.

Another tool, which most artists and photographers will be familiar with, is a
|
|
|
|
|
Light Table. This tool assists artists and photographers with reviewing their
|
|
|
|
|
work ensuring the highest quality only. A classical light table will show the
|
|
|
|
|
artist the place on the images to touch up. Well in digiKam, the light table
|
|
|
|
|
function provides the user a similar experience. You can import a photo, drag it
|
|
|
|
|
onto the light table, and touch up only the areas that need it.
