[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 443853, member: 9240"] Tips? Sure do. [LIST=1] [*]Grab the laptop [*]Open a beverage [*]Turn on the TV [*]Do as many as you can until your brain is numb [*]Repeat as necessary [/LIST] Before that, however, figure out what kind of organization will work for you. I have catalogs for each year and then organize within each year by subject. [B][I]Use tags and collections!![/I][/B] Learn to tag as you import new stuff and tag stuff that's there either during your organizing or in a second pass (if you've had 4 years of untagged files like me it can be daunting, but there is an end to the madness). Collections can work well if you have groupings you want to access together that runs against your organization structure - for example you organize all vacation shots by trip, but you also want "Landscapes", "Churches", "Architecture". If you've never used it, watch a video or three. Here's Tim Grey's take. [MEDIA=youtube]wm6OroP6CAU[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
