Giving your photos meaningful names makes it significantly easier to keep tabs on them. Of course, renaming each and every photo by hand is not particularly practical, especially if you take dozens or even hundreds of photos each day. This is when digiKam's Rename feature can come in rather handy. You can use it to define rather advanced renaming rules and apply them to multiple photos in one fell swoop. Continue to read
Using digiKam's Kipi plugins, you can upload your photos to a variety of popular photo services, including Flickr, Picasaweb, and SmugMug. But what if you want to host your own photo album and still be able to populate it with photos directly from within digiKam? In this case, you might want to try Piwigo, a nifty photo application that has everything you need to host and share your photos on the Web. Continue to read

This technique involves taking several shots of the same scene or subject with different exposures and then fusing these shots into one perfectly exposed photo. Continue to read
My name is Gabriel Voicu, I am 20 years old and I come from Bucharest, Romania where I'm studying Computer Science and Engineering at University Politehnica of Bucharest. I enjoy programming, playing basket-ball and spending time with my girlfriend.
I was very happy when I saw that I was accepted to this year Google Summer of Code with the project "Reverse Geocoding and Improved Map Search" because I consider this feature very useful when talking about images geotagging.
Hello to all the great KDE people and especially digiKam fans!
My full name is Martin Klapetek, but everyone calls me Marty and I can be found on most services like IM or IRC by the name mck182. I'm 22 and I'm from Czech republic and ever since I started with Linux, I immediately become a huge fan of KDE (3.5 back then). I'm a terrible musician (playing guitar, bass guitar, sometimes even piano [you don't want to be there]), promising art painter and hopefully-soon-to-be graduated college student with bachelor's degree in Computer Science.
