Helping Linux-using photographers be awesome at finding their photos.

Dimbola

Dimbola is, or will be, a free Linux/GNOME application for managing digital photographs. It is aimed at serious photographers. It is currently nearing alpha state, some basic functionality is there and works, but lots is still missing.

This page is a placeholder for until there is some real content. (Help wanted! This is a wiki, just fix things if you see something broken.)

See the roadmap for what will hopefully happen in the future.

Download

The current version is 0.0.3.

See NEWS file for what's new in each release. It is also available as Help/News in the program.

The program is developed under Ubuntu 9.04 (jaunty) and 9.10 (karmic), but should work elsewhere with Python 2.6, PyGTK, dcraw, pyexiv2, and netpbm.
