Agreed. I typically use rechargables in my camera, so I'm not messing
with the (xD in my case) card. I just plug in the camera, Konqueror
opens a window, I copy the files to folder - /home/kai/Documents/My
Pictures/YYYY/Event - then either open Digikam or Picasa to manage
them.
I then simply keep them local, copy some to one of my USB drives to
take to the local photo shop, like Price Club or Target, or I upload
them to shutterfly or some other service.
In some cases, I put one picture up on my web page just to view. This
one I just put up this morning:
http://www.perfectreign.com/?q=node/68
In addition I often make a web page containing a collection. I host
several sites and have 50G available. I just use Konqueror to ftp them
up.
Picasa does a nice job of setting up a web page using a format I like.
Here's an example on the web:
http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/pics/2007/arrowhead/
I did this one with gwenview:
http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/pics/2006/2006_florida/
Though I haven't used it recently JAlbum (http://jalbum.net/) does a
beatiful job of both managing pictures and setting up web albums. I
gave up on it only because it does "too much" for me. :P
HTH!
