PhotoMDâ„¢ latest upgrade



 Logos Flow™ is proud to announce the latest version of the PhotoMD™ - version 6.0!

Firstly, we would like to express a sincere thanks to all the clients who use this product and have supported it over the years. Your suggestions are always appreciated and many of them have gone into the version 6.0 upgrade.

Due to the growing number of organisations and businesses using the PhotoMDâ„¢, and other growth areas, we have introduced online client relations software to improve the service, delivery and communication with you. To access this, click Login on the main menu. Note: you will need a username and password - please contact us if you require one. You will be able to download version 6.0 via this service.

PhotoMDâ„¢ version 6.0 has undergone a number of changes - from entry screens to new features. Below are all the details:

Quick capture wizard

This feature offers a way in which image details can be added to the database very quickly. This means that you can enter image details every couple of seconds - anything up to 500 records per hour. What makes this feature sucessful is the information remains on the form and you send it to the database when required, which means similar information does not need to be re-entered.

Simply add information to the appropriate fields, assign the Item's ID and click the Send button. To continue adding information, click the Send button again.



To link a digital image to the details on the database, simply click the Browse button to locate the image on your computer / network server. We can also offer a number of tips to make this process even easier.

If you would like to relate image details to a particular Producer / Photographer, click the Producer button and follow the on-screen instructions. To add items to another producer, simply select another one.

The Quick Capture Wizard feature tracks all the database integrity required, i.e. duplicate Item ID numbers, insufficient data, etc. This way you can rapidly add new image details without compromising the integrity of the database.

Selecting records

Previous versions of the PhotoMDâ„¢ offered you the option of selecting records for printing and exporting purposes. Essentially this let you choose, or tag, records to use for printing and exporting. The limitation was you could only select one set of records and could not add to records already selected. With the version 6.0 you choose whether to make a new selection or keep on adding to records you have already selected. This offers you unlimited choices in selecting what to print and export.

If this is used in combination with the new data merging feature, you can not only choose what, but how, to display your information. You can also choose to select all the records in the database as well.

PhotoMDâ„¢ new look-and-feel

Version 6.0 now has a new branding generic to all Logos Flowâ„¢ off-line products. Making use of various techniques to enter and view information much clearer ways. There are also more explanatory notes to guide you through various processes.

Online help and support

As you are probably aware, all support manuals are now placed on the Logos Flowâ„¢ website - a centralised service where everyone sees the latest help and support. To access you will need Login details. The links are built into the PhotoMDâ„¢

Imaging / hyperlinks

On the Hyperlink form, there is now a Status option that, if ticked, automatically checks if the link to the file is correct. If it is correct the actual file size is shown. Very useful when needing to check if the link to the file, and size, is correct.

When viewing an image's details, there is a new option that lets you look at the Hyperlinks related to the Item - this saves you from clicking the Hyperlink option to see what is available.

Export to the Internet

Placing your image bank on the Internet is becoming more and more popular and the Online version of the PhotoMDâ„¢ has been available for a number of years. In version 6.0, the data that is exported has been enhanced to allow for more options when available on the website, especially when searching the collection.

Advanced filtering options

The View menu option now has a vast number of advanced filtering options. This is an important development due to users requiring indepth options of retrieving information. We will be posting more information on this website about advanced filtering – you are welcome to contact us for further details in the meantime. However, for the advanced users, there are a variety of ways in which you can display your results such as freezing columns, moving columns, changing fonts … and much more.

PhotoMDâ„¢ name change

The previous cumbersome Photo Management Database is now a simplfied: PhotoMDâ„¢. All Logos Flowâ„¢ products have gone through a name change. For more details: go to the Off-line Products section of the website then click the FAQs option.
