Titles on CD ROM ?
« on: Wednesday 07 October 09 07:32 UTC (UK) »
Hello ,
I have loaded about 30 family photos onto a CD ROM now but wish each photo has a title now to make it more interesting . Is there anything I can do to give each photo a name or title please ?
Regards
Alan

I think you should have asked that question before you copied the photographs to CD-ROM because you can't change them now.  However, you can make changes to the images on your hard drive and then copy them to a new blank CD.

If you do not have any photo maniplulation software installed on your PC then you can use Windows built-in software.  Right click an image on your hard drive and select Properties and click on the Summary tab.  If you fill in the Title and Comments fields then what will happen is that they will be displayed but op when you hover over the image with your mouse.  It is fairly primitive but it is better than nothing and it works on any computer with Windows installed.

There are free image manipulation progams available like Ifran that offer more possibilities and are a bit more versatile.
