Plastic binders designed for photo materials (also archival) with closed sides to eliminate dust are also available. I find them somewhat bulky to store. I usually put my film and transparency strips into the archive pages, then fold the pages and put them into paper envelopes with date and principle subject matter written on them, file those into boxes by date. The next step, a keyed database system so I can find things that are significant, I haven't worked out yet but any decent database program should be able to do it with a little bit of effort. I also have an algorithm for doing direct image searching by comparison to a given image that I wrote when I was a scientist doing those sorts of things ... converts an image into a 2D frequency spectra using a 2DDFFT and allows searching patterns of similar type ... It would be interesting to resurrect that code now that my personal computer is 100x more powerful than the VAX I wrote it on, could be a useful tool in an image database. :) Gads, I wonder what archive I've lost it in? Another quest ... Godfrey never runs out of windmills
