Hello,
I have more and more photos and I would like to have an application to organize them somehow, for example enable keyword tagging and searching. It is also important to enable access to photos from internet as well as offline and also use internet as backup. So best is desktop+online, but two separate solutions are also OK. I am not interested in sharing photos at the moment, so private albums should be possible, with option to share later.
I checked Picasa together with Web Albums and it is basically good. However, Picasa suddenly takes up 90% of my CPU and continues until it's closed. Noise from the fan becomes disturbing.
I also checked IrfanView Thumbs but it does not display local language characters properly (which I might use in tags) and looks old. FastStone on the other hand looks super except that it does not allow any keyword tagging.
I am wondering what solutions do professional photographers use to store and organize photos?
