Now I have a student discount again, I'll probably break down and get Lightroom. It can be had for $94.95 with a student discount.
Marnie aka Doe :-) I knew there was some reason I kept taking classes. =========== Lightroom. Bridge is not an organizer and has no ability to manage data that is on an off-line volume. Bridge is a browser and workflow/automation coordinator for the Adobe Creative Suite. Album was never available on Mac OS X anyway so that was never an option for me. Lightroom works exceptionally well as the center of your photographic workflow. It handles import, renaming, organizing (combining into sets, sorting and grading, etc), metadata editing, global editing (cropping, rotation, tonal rendering) and limited spot correction, integrates beautifully with Photoshop CSx and other external editors for higher-level selective editing, and has excellent tools for slide show and print output. It also does web site output although I find its facilities there a little weaker than the rest. I use it extensively, every day, and the more I use it and uncover its subtleties, the more I like it.
