I've given up on all of that. All my pictures are on /disk/camera/{year}/{year}{month}{day}-{eventName}/IMG_1294.jpg

I've thought about cramming metadata in there, somehow - text files on the disk? Metadata in the file itself? - but nothing ever seemed right, and like hell will I let some other application move/copy my files over and maintain its own weird binary database that I'm likely to never be able to read again as soon as my license expires or if I switch operating systems.
