PicaJetToDigiKam

Migration of data from PicaJet to digiKam

What is this?

PicaJetToDigiKam is an Open Source program that takes your tags and ratings from PicaJet FX and adds the information to a digiKam 0.10 database.

Now, why do we want to do this data transfer?

PicaJet FX (http://picajet.com) is a payware program that has a rather slick interface and works okay for tagging. It is also crash-prone, does not scale well (at least not to the 50.000 images I have) and updates have been very slow the last couple of years.

Time to move on. As an old PicaJet-user I like digiKam, so you might also want to give it a shot. The beauty of digiKam is that with KDE 4, it now runs under Linux, Windows and OSX.

This is not a polished product. I hacked at it until it was capable of migrating my data, Use it at your own risk and feel free to take the source and make it better.
