Hi,

By the way, did I already tell you that I *love* digikam ?

I've been toying with different photo viewers since I started with
linux... but digikam is the one that works best for me. The interface is
clear and uncluttered; the way the photo's open in a new window, or not,
is just right for me...
The tools are very nice to, I love slideshow, and slideshow to mpeg, and
the little tool where you can readjust gamma.

Only minor annoyance: you can't feed it multiple photo directories. That's
a drag. I would also like to be able to start digikam in a temporary
directory, just to look at some photos' someone brought me on stick, cd
or camera. And the HTML exporter is too limited; it should probably work
with a template engine to create the desired results.

All in all, I've been using it for 3 years or so, and it is still my
preferred app for photo management. Hats off to all involved !!!

Cheers,
ace

This is done with 0.10.0 version dedicaced to KDE4 :

...but we need to test and test indeep this new version, planed to june 2008... Not before...

Hum, HTML export kipi-plugins use XTML+CSS with templates... You can customized this one like you want...
