Kathy's Corner » Members Ask: “I digitized my photos, now what?” » May 2024

Projectkin's own Kathy Stone, a professional photo organizer, now mostly retired from client work answers practical questions from members trying to manage their own photo collections.

Despite

’s careful preparation and focus, we were a rowdy bunch today. Perhaps a consequence of too much birthday partying. 😉

Today’s session focused on answers to questions submitted to Kathy’s prompt earlier in the week. We started with two key topics:

How to clean photos and slides:

  • Dust Removal

    • Microfibre cloth

    • Air Blower

    • Antistatic Brush

    • Electric Duster

  • Glue, Sticky Substances

    • UnDu

    • Pec Pads

    • Pec Solution

    • Rubber Cement Eraser

This second question led to a little fun debate and an broader conversation about the direction of these technologies and how we can best support each other.

What to do with Scan Files?

  • Gather and make working сору

  • Rename files - date, event

  • CONSISTENCY

  • Change File date

  • Add Keyword - scanned

  • Move files from working copy to organized location
