Here is my problem:

I need to find a reliable photo sharing program for our graphics department that can be used across a network of
computers.Take into consideration we have both PC and Mac users in our office, with the only place to store data is
on a mac x-serve or SAN from what am told.

Requirements for the software to have:

- It must be able to edit photos meta data per photo or multiple groups of photos.

- The ability for anyone from our company to add photos, download the preexisting ones but not edit the originals.

- The software must be able to do quick searches based on keywords/ meta data through all photos
in specific folders or all folders.

- Program must be able to handle thousands of photos (5,000+ photos).

- It would be nice to have the ability to have some sort of light box feature in the program.

- All the picture files must have an auto-update feature of some kind. We constantly add and remove photos
all the time for projects.


The only program I have seen that even comes close to this is by Extensis.

I would be very grateful for any information that may help or links.
I am not the most web savvy person ether, which hinders my searching skills online.
