Well then, 6 years on from getting my first serious DSLR, my D90, I've come to realise my image files are all over the place and it's now an absolute nightmare trying to find anything specific.

I started off shooting just JPEG files, but fairly quickly moved to shooting both RAW and JPEG copies at the same time. As if that isn't bad enough there have been times when I've experimented with HDR which obviously means having several different exposures of the same image thus increasing the number of files I've collected even more.

And more recently still I've began to experiment with panoramas, which means once again taking umpteen different shots of the same scene.

Oh, and then there's my tendency to like to mess around with my images in what I euphemistically call the 'processing room' which creates even more versions of the same base file.

All of which means I now have literally tens of thousands of images, but no sensible system for storing, managing, editing and/or accessing them. I suspect though that others may have had to crack this nut too at some point and so am wondering what you guys out there do?

Any advice or tips would be much appreciated!

Kind regards
