Hi, I wrote windows program for upload JPG to agencies.

What do you think?

Looks nice and simple! Exactly what I need as I've already made keywords solution for myself... Only I need it for Linux

Looks OK, but why bother writing something when pretty competent solutions (free) are already available? StockUploader, for instance?

Hello!

nice to see that there are Others here sharing the same interests..

i am the coder of stockuploader! did you check it out? i would like to test your program. can you send me a copy please?
Stockuploader also has a keywording tool and is available also for mac.
beside stockuploader there are other tools such as gostock. gostock does not have a keywording tool but with all platforms (i think Linux too)

Stickuploader looks nice, indeed... Only I need something for Linux platform, that's why I've made my multiplatform keywording solution (written in java so it works everywhere), but still do not have FTP uploader. Could try with "Wine" though...

big mistake.
as a professional you better stick with the industry standards (win/mac).

do you expect developers to waste time and money porting their apps to a platform that is barely used by 1% of photographers ?

however, things could change soon with the next Visual Studio as it seems it will provide native multiplatform support as long as your OS can run the .NET framework, we will see ... and this can be done already with Mono Develop by the way (recently bought by microsoft and it will be integrated in the next VS).

I have developed mymicrostockupload.com. The advantage is that you can use it from everywhere in the world without installing software, you can use it from your mobile phone or pad and additional you have a complete backup of your images. You can ask me if you need more features in future!

Hobo,

you're right, I'm certainly not processing my photos in Linux, but have some troubles with keywording / describing / uploading. I mean, it takes a lots of time, maybe more than processing itself.

So basically, I'm doing keywording at multiple places - sometimes on linux computer, sometimes on windows etc... And for example, the app that I've made for keywording is very small, I can have it in USB stick and run it from USB. I have photos at my Dropbox account, so they are accessible everywhere as well.

Only I'm missing that kind of app for FTP...

Linux supports all standards and protocols etc, so there's no need to wait for anyone "wasting their time" there. You don't seem to be very familiar with open source tools. Or what do you believe ftp is, what is JPEG, how about most video codecs out there etc...?

That sounds like me :) -- at least a bit. I have become rather no-frills lately with my re-discovery of the command line. It is outright amazing what you can do once you get yourself a few extra package down your favorite repository :)

For video, it's everything ffmpeg & friends for me. For photo, imagemagick and everything that can be added to this core platform. Keeps it simple (and fast).

I used to waste my time with Win and Mac stuff where it turns out the lion's share went into "updating" and repairing OS issues and bugs/omissions in application programs. Not anymore!

Imagenagick looks great, indeed... But I do not see Metadata/Keywords editing there? That was my biggest problem, therefore I've made my own wrapper of ExifTool in java, here is the first version, you can take a look:

http://stockphototagger.sourceforge.net

Here you can edit Title/Desc/Keywords of a file, copy/paste and update multiple files with the same metadata. also drag/drop the images to Filezilla etc. Now I'm almost ready with the second version where you should be able to see/edit all medatata, and do some file management (copy, delete, move files, etc)
