What you have to do?

Create an Application that lets me OPEN and Image(jpg) from anywhere and i need to be able create/edit the TAG of the Image ( ie Copyright info) and embed it with the image and then save it. And i need to be able to open the image and view it and the Copyright info. I also want to be able to Edit the Info and delete it from the Image/s and then re-save it.

The application can be coded in any language that you want to do it in.



That should get you all busy, so hopefully we shall see some cracking examples.

The one that stands out above the rest will be the winner

any more info then just reply to this thread and yeah GOOD LUCK!!

As Mad as a Mad March Hare :lol:

There is no problem I make the program in C#? It shouldn't be too hard to understand even if you dont know it.

By embedding, do you mean like a watermark application, or do you mean adding info that you can view in the file properties?

Hey

I am thinking on the lines of a way to add copyright info to Jpg Images, I want to see the info when i open the pic, and the Info is Transferable whereever the pic goes. Ideally the TAG info should be non removable from the pic and No-One can edit the Tag info except me

So an Application that lets me open Single or Multiple Images and then lets me Type copyright info to create the Image Tag. The app should have a function where i can edit the tag/s as well as create them.

So if i give images out or sell them or put online, then the TAG stays with the image and cannot be removed by anyone except me.

A metadata tag could be easily removed/changed by anyone that knows how to call a sub in Visual Basic. You can use Get- or SetPropertyItem in the Image class to edit copyright, title, etc. You are talking about the things that show in Windows Explorer right? For example the Artist of an MP3 file.

Else you would have to watermark the image, which isn't the same as changing its metadata.

Hey

I think the only way is the MetaData way you said above.

I can do the watermark myself, but i need something a bit more flexible and too add a bit more info.

If anyone can improve on what i need, I will leave that up to you, Basically it should an App that lets me add Data to the Image,like Author/date taken/Image name and size etc.

He wants to be able to edit the title, description, creator, copyright and such info that show when you select an image in Windows Explorer.
