All useful but not what I need for this project. :-) I use gtkam virtually every day to manage the download an importing of images into a series of albums. It gives you a lot of control and can be set to do anything that windows image manager can. To optimize your effectiveness use gphoto2 as the back end for gtkam. I also use the plugin gtkam-gimp to allow gimp to serve as my editing tool. It is pretty seamless. Gimp on the other hand is NOT photoshop. It is actually as powerful or more so, but somewhat harder to learn. It really needs an overhaul as far as the GUI for it to be accepted by mainstream windows users in place of adobe photoshop.I also use GQView & Gthumb to manipulate images. They will allow you to use the exif data that gtkam does not allow for. It gives you the ability to sort and eliminate duplicates across the entire album base. Last but not least I use Gallery2 to manage my online photo galleries. VERY cool and extremely reliable. All of these have dependencies but as far as I know no KDE stuff. I currently manage albums containing over 20,000 family photos with this system.
