[lug] image databases and albums

[Warren Sanders]

I second what Ed says.  I use it with about 4 separate albums using 
postnuke.  Yes it uses jhead in EXIF and also uses NetPBM for rotating 
and resizing.  As for its speed; it's not that slow.  Where it is slow 
is when you use it with post/php nuke; then you're talking slow!  But 
the features far outweigh this.  Wouldn't be too hard to create your 
audio annotations as it does already handle movies of some format I 
haven't looked into.
