Although it would be nice to have every photo contain the event name and the date is was taken, managing this is a nightmare. Also, to make the photos cross-platform compatible, the photos should ideally be in folders. To have them sort chronologically, the photos name should start with the year it was taken, then the month, day, hour, minute and second.
