Best approach for online file management

In my current situation, I have about 500 snapshots of my young children uploaded from various parties, dance performances and other events. I am in the process of going through these to pick out somewhere between 12 and 40 images that I really like, the intent being to print a calander and/or have printed book made. Not having a clear-cut way to mark these photos for future return and/or editing, what I've ended up doing is simply utilizing the "make a copy of a single photo" option as I go through the gallery, then after I've gone through the gallery, move all those photos into a "to be printed" gallery. This approach is a bit cumbersome, since I have to find the copied photos again later to move them.

Anyone have a better suggestion? What I might suggest in the way of useful features is (1) a feature to mark an individual photo for later use, or (2) a feature to immediately copy a single photo to another gallery.

    Yes, this has been requested a number of times...to add "Copy to Gallery" and "Copy to Multiple Galleries" tools like the existing Move tools. Hope it gets done in the near future.ne_nau.gif
