you can use libimage-exif-perl to extract the date and time that the photo was taken and use that information to move the photo to a particular directory. Somthing like this: my $exif = new Image::EXIF($file_name); my $image_info = $exif->get_image_info(); that will give you a has reference with all the photo's information. -- Peter Hicks Don't anthropomorphize computers, they don't like it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
