:) I am trying out Photo Album 2.0 starter edition that don't seem to have a "watch Folders" feature as the Organizer does in E3.0. Does anyone know if the full version of Photoshop Album 2.0 has the "watch folders" feature. I am not going to upgrade if it does not.

Thanks for any info.

Dave.

According to the "New Features in Photoshop Album 2.0" post on Adobe forums it does:

"File Import

- Many RAW formats are supported, including most cameras from Nikon, Canon, Olympus, Minolta, and Fujifilm.

- You can specify a folder into which you store photos from your mobile phone, and Album will optionally check that folder for new photos each time it launches and import new ones.

- If photos have embedded tags, either from sharing via email from Album 2 or from another application that uses IPTC keywords, you have the option to convert them to Album tags. "

The link to the post is http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx?50@29.rPCId4a7Apo.2@.2cced0b6

Hope this helps.

Hi Dave, maybe i'm wrong here but I updated from Photoshop Album 2 and PSE 2 to version PSE 3. Aren't you going the wrong way here? I don't see any difference between the Album 2 and the organizer used in PSE 3. You won't be gaining anything as far as i can see...
Best wishes Neil

:) Hi Neil, I know what you are saying, I use organizer for all my digital pictures, but I was looking for an alternative to adding a second catalogue in Elements for storing all my background and work images, if I use Album 2, I can have both programs running at the same time for moving images into editor. Just a thought.

Thanks to all,

Dave.

No Problem Dave. I do the same thing but by using a collection/and or Tags. I find it easier than switching programs. Best wishes, Neil
