If you're not familiar with ACDSee Pro Photo Manager, it's an excellent tool for photo management, mass re-naming/re-sizing, basic editing, and a whole lot more. I've been using ACDSee products since buying ACDSee 2.4 on March 8th, 1999 - yeah, I still have the email receipt. ;-) Here's a bit about the software:



"In today’s world of professional digital photography, workflow is the name of the game. That’s why we created ACDSee Pro Photo Manager: To give you unparalleled speed in every facet of your digital photography management — from photo capture to final print. View, process, edit, organize, catalog, publish, and archive your photo collections with the precision and control demanded by professional photographers around the globe. Get full RAW support and RAW processing, powerful organizing tools like customizable folders and categories, quick editing features, visual tagging and full color management support for ICC and ICM profiles to meet all of your professional needs."

Now here's the contest: ACD Systems graciously provided me with two electronic copies of ACDSee Pro to give away, valued at $129 USD each, and winning a copy is easy: take a look at the list of top features, or step through the tour, and post a message in this discussion thread telling me which feature you think would benefit your digital photo workflow the most, and why. That's it! Two winners will be randomly selected from all entries on Thursday, June 1st at 12pm.

Just got a Canon 30D. Need ACDSEE Pro to manage, tag and edit my RAW files.

I really like the visual tagging feature. It's a very convenient and quick way to separate the good from the not so good pictures. What's more, it's useful to select files for slide shows.

For me:
1. Visual rating (tagging)
2. The customization

Definately the tagging, ratings, and categories functions.

[chrisspera]

For me... Definitely
1. Batch
2. Quick Editing

We have 3 different digitial camera users in the family, and I need something besides PaintShop Pro or Photoshop to help me edit pictures. My wife uses the Kodak system, but I don't like that for my stuff, and I tend to store images in TIFF format instead of JPEG. TIFF's don't have the compression/lossy issues that JPG's do.

As we are an all digital household, the features that would most benefit us are the ability to compare photos and to run batch operations on groups of photos.

Thanks.

I really like the tagging feature idea.

I take lots of pictures of my kids (3 of them now with my new daughter). It can be a pain trying to sort through them all.

[David Horn]

Would have to be tagging and batch editing for me. :-)

I manage several web sites so my top feature would be the HTML album creator.
