<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ldhair, post: 3442375, member: 11540&quot;]I have a few thoughts that may help. I really messed up when I was doing this and it took me a long time to get everything fixed. Actually I&#039;m still not finished.</p><p>Create a really nice directory to store the images in. Do this from the start. It&#039;s a pain trying to catch up later.</p><p><br /></p><p>The camera will create a file name for each image. Don&#039;t loose that. It gives you a timeline that is helpful when trying to find an image. I rename by adding to the file name the camera gave it. This keeps the images sorted and keeps all the images of each coin together. Example. 1861 10c 0026.jpg or Dime 1861 0026.jpg</p><p>I&#039;m always going back and shooting a coin again. It&#039;s nice to keep all of them together.</p><p><br /></p><p>I save every image just the way it comes off the camera and never mess with it. It becomes the master file, I can always use later. You can do a save as and edit that image and keep the master safe.</p><p><br /></p><p>When it comes to resizing, you can do a batch process of many images at the same time. With these I create a file name something like this. 1861 10c 600X 0026.jpg</p><p>Coin Talk is really cool. You don&#039;t have to resize every image. The site software does that for you when it&#039;s uploaded. Other sites are not always that friendly.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess what I&#039;m saying is to plan ahead.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
