Hi, I'm wondering if there are any issues with importing data from a text file for the photo information rather than using the photo editor? I have hundreds of photos to add at any one time and I don't really want to type everything into the photo editor individually. I can export the photo data from Portfolio, which is what I use for cataloging, and I can munge the text file to the proper format for the mysql database, if there are no issues about importing data this way for EE.

Also, is there an easy way to add fields that will be displayed for each photo? I can go in and muck with the php files, but I thought I'd ask if this was supported first!

thanks,
Linda
