CMS - Image library

Image libraries are everywhere, you probably have one for your holiday snaps already. With the ever increasing domination of the digital camera, image libraries are here to stay.

 image libraries come in a lot of forms

Something to remember about image libraries is that they are effectively an image database and like all databases are only useful if you can retrieve and display the information is a logical and nice way. Good libraries will allow image categorisation by keyword, good search facilities and the ability to display an image in various resolutions for differing uses.

Images libraries can also be ecommerce applications where you choose your images and then purchase/download after some form of payment process.

Finally remember that image libraries come in a lot of forms and though they may not say 'image library' at the top, that is basically what they are - see John Richmond, fashion designer.
