In EE Powertols where you can force certain data on your pictures, the list of photographers is empty.

The list of locations, countries, etc... all lists works, except the photoraphers list is empty.

Anyone seen that before, and know of a fix...?

In relation to another problem, I would like to force all pictures to have a specific photograper.....

I found it.... if you create a new phothographer, this will not be listed in EE powertools until you have uploaded at least one photo owned by the new photographer...

Same goes for the Camera list.

Yes. I just discovered this too. A better design would be just to list all available values in the 'force to' section and only show values that exist in the database in the filtering section.

Pekka - Can you also add the option to force a photo name ?

That is a bug. Will fix it.

You mean with a fixed name, or like header setting in "set default photodata" editor?

Like header setting in "set default photodata" editor would be fine since I think that allows a fixed name entered by the user and/or the file name/extension.

In my opinion, the suggested enhancements (including my own) are getting into the realm of advanced/nice to haves indicating that you have done a great job on the basic product...

If you really want to get fancy how about a scripting/workflow capability across C1, Photoshop (or other prodcuts with batch type capabilities) and then up and into EE automatically!!! - now that would be cool !!

Also one thing I would like would be more automation in the development of styles, especially around the shadows and frames - since I want to create some styles with wider frames, variable matt widths, varying frame widths/textures.

Feel free to ignore my selfish and perhaps frivolous suggestions...
