Manage Images 2.0 - Hints and Tips

How can I easily copy keywords from one image to a batch of images?

When you open a batch of image for editing all the keyword fields are blank. One method to copy images from one image to all the images in a batch is to open manage images 2.0 in two different browsers (you cannot open it twice in the same make of browser!). In one browser locate your 'master' image - double click on it to open it in edit mode. In the other browser assemble your batch and click the keywords option to set the keywords for the batch. You can now cut/paste keywords from the "master" image into the batch.

I did something similar but opened the old Manage Images in a second window and copied from that then pasted into the batch in Manage Images (v2.0). It helps that I have two monitors so can see both windows at the same time. The problem is you have to remember to REFRESH the Manage Images page rather than save it as doing the former caused a bit of a hickup. I just hope we don't lose the old Manage Images when the new one is fully functional.
