Digital image management on the cheap.
So there you have it. It really is a low-budget affair to launch the software side of your digital experience. If at all possible, upgrade to Windows XP. It will make your computer life much easier in many respects. Image handling will become intuitive and your system lockups will become infrequent. Don't be afraid to try more than one of the programs reviewed. Even if you invested in all three programs, you'd still be spending less than $200 for some pretty awesome capabilities. My favorite? If I had to limit myself to one program, it would be After Shot because of the printing module and the ability to demo side-by-side images. But I'd miss SMART SEND and FotoAngelo. Two other postscripts: Microsoft's Publisher, while not a browser/sorter, is excellent for developing printing layouts that are retrievable. If you already own it, your printing layout demands may already be met. And it is worth noting that both ACDSee and After Shot possess features for developing HTML content. Happy imaging!
