Just received an email from a user (I don’t know if they use PhotoInfoEditor or PhotoGPSEditor) alerting me to the addition of PhotoGPSEditor to a Wikipedia page on geocoding.

MMISoftware has just released PhotoIcon (download), which is a small free program to add thumbnail image icons to photo files.

There is a good tip over at Apple on how to view the exif (meta-data) of a photo that you have tagged with PhotoGPSEditor or PhotoInfoEditor. Such a simple tip, and something I do everyday without thinking about.

Backing up is a serious business. And at MMISoftware we like to keep backups of, well, everything.

A number of users have emailed MMISoftware about how the ‘map marker’ is used in the PhotoInfoEditor and PhotoGPSEditor.

Conversely, the strong pound (and Euro) makes MMISoftware software cheap! So now is the time to buy! (Or make a donation!)

I have had some users of PhotoGPSEditor (and no doubt there are some users of PhotoInfoEditor who have faced the same problem) comment that when they use PhotoGPSEditor to add latitude and longitude data to photos, and then upload the photos to Flickr that the lat and lon meta-data is not read… Now, the there could be a simple reason for this….

An update of PhotoInfoEditor has just been released (download), and just like with PhotoGPSEditor a ‘nag’ screen has been added (see earlier post).
