Description Haakon Meland Eriksen 2009-11-08 01:39:31 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)

I have some suggestions for Digikam, if you are interested.

Assuming that I do 200 images per customer at a wedding or photo shoot, I quickly want to start Digikam and add the images to a customer album. I need to set a due date, and be reminded of upcoming due dates.

I have a mock-up image of what I would like Digikam to show me upon startup. Rather than the long text it does now, I would like an optional startup view. It shows the four next albums, sorted by due date.

The album that needs to be finished first is shown larger an above the three albums that are coming up. Next to the album that is due first is a short info-box, showing the album name, customer number, due date, the number of images in the album, the number of edited and the number of discarded images.

The album thumbnail could be either the next image for editing in that album or the last edited image in that album. By clicking on the image it is opened, and other images in the album should be shown as thumbnails somewhere close by.

What do you think?

I think this concept of due date redondant with :

- Calendar view.
- TimeLine View
- Labels or Tags view where you can customize as you need to group items for a specific date...

Probably. I think the original idea was to be able to work on images which needed to be finished edited by a certain date and time, e.g. for a magazine before the next edition is published or a new web site launch.
