Lighthouse - Very nice GUI

["Bengt Thuree" <bengt thuree com>]

Hi

This product seems to have some interesting ideas, and would be worthwhile
to ensure that f-spot handles everything Lightroom does.

Have a look at the video they have made :
http://labs.macromedia.com/technologies/lightroom/video/#
More videos will be coming later they say (for Develop, Slideshow and
Print...)

Some highlights:
* Compare, which dynamically displays 1-X number of photos scaled
suitable. Very easy to add or remove photos,
* Quick links to Entire Library, Quick Collection (tags?), and Previous
Import (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=321770)
* Numeric rating per picture, and a slidebar to filter with so you only
see the photos with a particular minimum rating. Instead of having only
Yes/No Favorite, you can grade them between 0-5 for instance. (as well as
favorite)
* Import (Reference original, Move, or Copy)
* Dim mode (dim everything but the photo)
* Quick Collection - Temporary collection (tag) for easy
handling/modifiying/copying etc

>From the review
---------------
Lightroom is setup with four main functional areas, to closely mimic what
photographers need to do in their workflow:

Library (review the shots); Develop (fine tune exposure, white balance,
color, and more); Slideshow (see your proofs, show off to clients); Print
(contact sheets or final output)
