Title: Dreamstime autopopulate just catagories
Post by: fintastique on July 07, 2006, 09:31

Dreamtime introduced autopopulating title, description and keywords from a previous image (it remembers the last 5)

Now by popular demand they have tweaked their system so it will autopopulate the categories as well

AND you can just get the categories from a previous image but do that first before you change the other data as when it retrieves the categories the rest of the data reverts to the IPTC data.

Well if they don't want to scrap categories at least it nice to see they are making entering categories easier.

It is kind of similar to iStock's implementation of their category system, except it adds IPTC functionality as well.

The major shortfall (IMO) is that it only goes back 5 images.  I wish that it would allow you to choose any image.

5 is a bit short but any image is taking it a bit far.  I think last 15 or 20.

Will definately make it quicker.
