From: zerostress on 7 Aug 2010 08:11 Hi All I have a collection of scans + pictures + would like to be able to access/seach them easily. Is there a freeware DB available. At the moment they are in jpeg,png,gif formats but I can convert them all to png if needed. Thanks in anticipation. -- regards ZS Killing all posts from Google Groups. Using e-mail, not Royal Mail.

I have decided to use folders and use irfanview to view/search. This has the added bonus of making it portable as I will be using an ext hd.

To install, go to: http://windows.kde.org/ I was able to get Digikam installed with a minimal install. If you want to take a test drive, you could install it in a virtual machine. -- Frank Hahn
