Unless a business tool!

It doesn't provide any of the information I requested. I believe that will only work on Picasa, tumblr, and other photo-sharing sites.

Looks great! Is that the same one as the 'Good for another year' watch? Just curious, cause it looks similar but the blue is lighter.

Jocke's work goes through Photoshop CS 3.0 so lots of stuff can be different from RAW.

But you can extract EXIF from the jpg...
