Stumbling upon this cool trick from Derrick Story may be a little late for me but it's really worth sharing. :)
If you want to give your digital pictures descriptive labels but wouldn't want to go through the tedious process of renaming them one by one, then you'll appreciate this hack. Btw, this works only for Windows XP.
1. Open the folder containing the pictures you want to rename.
2. Select all pictures that you want to rename.
3. Right click on the first picture you selected then click on "Rename" from the drop-down menu.
4. Type in the new name for this group of pics, e.g., "At_the_Airport" , then press Enter.
This will rename all selected pics to At_the_Airport, At_the_Airport (1), At_the_Airport (2) and so on.
Cool, isn't? :)
Why didn't I learn about this when I was compiling my digital pics last month? **sigh**
Oh well, at least we're aware of it now. :)
