Hi,

I found this http://www.microimages.com/sml/GetEXIF.htm to be very helpful. The structure of the code is almost like PHP and it has the biggest collection of exif tag information that I could find...and I searched for days. Getting the exif tags out is one thing, but interpreting what the sometimes bizzare values mean is a different thing. I found the storage of the thumbnail as a text string quite clever. I created an online picture viewer with a database backend so that friends and family can search for pictures and create their own list of favorites. I also plan to expand this to include Flash Video so that I can share my home videos as well. Geroen Wijering made a really nice Flash Video player. I also used some of the other image functions so that I can specify the rotation angle when adding new pictures and have them rotated on the fly when viewing pages. That saves tons of time as I can now pipe pictures from the camera straight into my viewer system. Sure, there are gazillion of those out there already, but it is fun and I can learn from it.
