Hey there you kids with your newfangled computrons.

So with the Orphan Works Bill out there screwing up life for the little guy, I realised it might be a good idea to start tagging my images properly.

After changing author info and adding keywords in CS3 (the file->file info dialogue) and verifying the tags are there and playing some more with them in Bridge, I then try and see those keywords in iPhoto, and it can't see em.

Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?

Oh, and while I'm here, I figured I should see if anyone else agrees with me that it's high time we got image tagging on the site - would make searching for stuff a lot easier if you could just search by username, date, 'thumbnail', 'environment' yada yada.

PEACE

OK I just checked the file info from Finder and the keywords are there. It might be an iPhoto problem..

I went into the iPhoto preferences and added some of the keywords which were in the file to see if that helped, and it didn't. Neither did changing it to 'match any'.
