Re: Old photo importer plugin

[Radek Zajkowski <radek 99bugs com>]

Hi Jack, 

great idea about changing dates of the files themselves, I've been living in Windows world far too long to think command line and scripting...switched recently to Linux permanently. I can probably whip up something together in bash.

Thank you,

Radek.

As Stephen said, you don't need a plugin to import. In the few cases
where I had to adjust the date of some photos before importing, I found
a utility to change the date in the exif header of the photo. As far
as I know, that's the date f-spot uses. I'm on linux, so scripting all
the date adjustments was easy - prior to importing the photos, but it
should also be possible on Windows.
