just my two cents:
DigiKam is cross-platform (Linux, Windows, Mac) Best, NeiNei On 03/31/2017 07:11 PM, Mica Semrick wrote: > Greetings, > > Please put on your marketing hats!/Can you all share with us the top 5 > or so features of digiKam? We will list them on the new home page. > > Best, > Mica |
- The 16 bits color depth support natively. - Fast photo adjustments in 3 clicks. - Large amount of collection. Here more than 100000 items populate the database. - Cross platform, even if OSX and Windows are not too mature than Linux. At least, i pass a lots of time to finalize bundles construction fully automatized. AppImage is supported which is really a huge step for deployment, when Linux distro only provide old version. - This project exists since 2001, and is managed by people who like to take photo. - Metadata transparent workflow. and more...

Free Software Works very well on GNU/Linux Handles a large collection well (over 70,000 photos) Batch re-naming Face tagging Easy editing Excellent support ... Thanks again to the creators and maintainers of this wonderful software! On Fri, Mar 31, 2017 at 10:33 PM, Gilles Caulier <[hidden email]> wrote:

I would definitely include that it scales very well with huge
collections.
The rest is hard to put into flashy one-sentence sales pitches, as it is lots of handy features around picture management. Alone they don't sound overly impressive (flexible batch renaming, tagging and flagging, metadata handling, ...), but being able to do that seamlessly in one program/interface makes is really cool. Challenge for the linguistically gifted: Convert that to such a one-sentence advert :P On 31/03/17 22:43, Jack Marxer wrote:

Looking at the responses and thinking in terms of general marketing, I think something along the lines of: * Open Source * Cross Platform * Organizing (tags, geotagging, face-detect, etc) * Scales (<100k items, no problem) * Built by photographers (this may be on it's own line/section - but I feel it's important so that folks realize it's created/maintained by people like them). Speaking of "built by photographers" - Do we have any headshots or images of the principal devs on the project? Gilles? Can we put a face to the project? :) pat On Fri, Mar 31, 2017 at 4:18 PM Simon Frei <[hidden email]> wrote:

yes there are from previous coding sprint event. Look in digiKam flickr repository : Gilles PS : this remember me that a new one must be created to take a beer (:=))) |
Hi all, This one is very important to list people who contribute with a little bit of money to see this project alive in time. I think it's important, especially if we want to organize some meeting in the future. Gilles 2017-04-02 15:29 GMT+02:00 Gilles Caulier <[hidden email]>:
