Thanks for the comments guys.
Dave, your ideas are all good. Unfortunately at this stage, I just don't have time to implement something like that. But it a great idea, a search engine for the images where you can enter values for the fields you're interested in.
As you say, it would only be as good as the information entered and whether people would be bothered is another story. I know in doing my image gallery, at the start I wilfully filled in the Equipment/processing etc fields, and by the end I was over it and just wanted to get the whole lot of images up. But that's just because I was doing a whole lot at once, if you were only uploading 1 at a time as you took them, it wouldn't be much extra work to fill the fields in accurately.
Anyway an image database like that is a good idea, but i'll probably start with just an online gallery for iceinspace members to upload/display their pics and maybe enhancements like that can be made in the future.
