| ODIN Professional - ODIN (Omegatron Duplicate Image Navigator) Professional is a great tool for managing large collections of images. It checks your images against a set of 270 variables and finds duplicates using either fuzzy pattern matching or binary duplicate scanning. Once duplicates are found, you can either delete them manually or use the Intelligent AutoDelete function (registered version only). However, I personally never use the Intelligent AutoDelete function because it sometimes chooses to delete the version of the photo that I'd prefer to keep. ODIN can also be set to monitor a directory for new images and compare them directly to your database. | |

Detector
- Like ODIN Professional, Dup Detector finds duplicate and near
duplicate images by opening and reading image pixel data. Unlike
ODIN Professional, Dup Detector is freeware! |

Photo Printing & Online Photo Sharing (Be sure to look at the Digital Photo Software Section for useful printing software links!) |
|

| Fix Your Own Printer - Do-it-yourself inkjet and laser printer repair kits (HP, Apple, Epson, and more). | |
| Online Printing & Online Photo Album Services | |
| Andromeda Software's Guide to Free Online Photo Albums - Nice summations of most of the online photo printing and photo album services. | |
| Fotki.com - Fotki is an online photo sharing community, offering photo sharing and printing service to its members. You can share your photos with family and friends. Organize your photos into photo albums that can be public or private or password protected, and also every visitor can leave a comment. Well designed site! | |
| Fotopic.net - This photo sharing site has been online since 1999 and has over a million members - and with good reason. For starters, you get 250MB of free space to host your own online gallery of photos. You can also use your photos to create and buy prints, mugs, t-shirts, jigsaws puzzles, jewelery, greetings cards and more. Fotopic has also created certain areas on the service where you can post photos with adult or mature content if you so desire. | |

| ezprints - My favorite photo printing site! You can have your photos printed in a wide variety of sizes ranging in size from wallet photos to 20 X 30 inches. I especially like that you can print not only glossy paper but also MATTE PAPER since most of the online photo printers I've checked out don't offer matte paper as an option. You can also put your photos on greeting cards, calendars, and specialty items such as mouse pads, mugs, t-shirts, key chains, magnets, clocks and more. You can either upload your photos. You can upload photos to photo albums and select photos from that album for printing or, better yet, just download one of their free upload software clients for easier uploading and greater control over things like cropping of your photos. I've used the Windows 95, 98, 2000 & NT upload client with good results. | |
| Kodak EasyShare Gallery (formerly known as Ofoto) - This site offers a secure and easy way to view, store and share photos online with friends and family and also offers a way to get real Kodak prints of digital photos.

They also allow for wide format 11x14, 16x20 and 20x30 prints. Your photos can be printed on both matte and glossy paper. Additionally they'll set you up so you can post free online photo albums! | |
| Yahoo! Briefcase - Store and share photos, documents, and other computer files. | |
| Web Photo Album & Web Photo Slideshow Creation Software | |
| My Photo Gallery - My Photo Gallery is a free web photo gallery cgi script and I recommend it wholeheartedly. Image galleries and thumbnails are generated on the fly from the directory that you specify. Creating an album is as easy as creating a directory and FTPing your pictures to that directory. A web administration interface is available, so updating is quite easy. It also includes advanced features such as image logging, resizing, rotating (lossless), extracting EXIF data from digital cameras, and visitor comments. This is the script I used to create the online photo album found at http://derek.to/cgi-bin/photo. | |
| Coppermine Online Photo Gallery - This free photo gallery script has many nice features. I tried using this script but, for whatever reason (perhaps the file size of my photos?) I could never run this script without crashing the web server. | |
| Gallery - Gallery is a free web-based software product that lets you manage your photos on your own website. Setting this up may be a bit confusing for novice webmasters and you must have your own website with PHP support in order to install and use it! However, once installed on your web server, you can create and maintain albums of photos via an intuitive interface. Photo management includes automatic thumbnail creation, image resizing, rotation, ordering, captioning, searching and more. Nice script but somehow I've never been able to get this to work for me. | |
| DAlbum - Haven't tried myself but this is a very nice looking free PHP photo album script. It is small, easy to install and highly customizable at the same time. Features include slide shows, image comments, support for video and PDF files and many more. | |
| Web Album Generator - Created by Mark McIntyre, Web Album Generator is a FREE software application that helps you publish your digital photos on the web. Web Album Generator makes it easy to create thumbnails, write an index page, and develop a navigation scheme to make your photos easily viewable on the web. It conforms to XHTML 1.0 Strict and CSS 2.0 which means that your photos will be viewable on any past or current web browser, and the pages will load as quickly as possible. If you find that installing cgi or php scripts is too much of a hassle, or your web host doesn't allow you to run scripts, then this is a great option. | |
| Galleria Web Album Creator - This web album creator lets you group together photos from disk or digital camera, create thumbnailed index pages, add annotations to each photo, and upload your photo album to the web with a built-in FTP client. Graphical photo albums can be generated as well as basic thumbnails. The Galleria Web Album Creator can automatically web-ready photos before they are uploaded to the web. You will be able to resize, compress, add a watermark to photos within this software package. Additionally, Web Album Creator can create an auto-run CD containing your photo album. Many more features are provided. | |
