Cheers,

I've been using Windows Live Photo Gallery for a while now to tag and organize images of a variety of different formats, and now I am interested in gathering the information I have annotated for statistical analyses, specifically tags and rating. Doing so with JPEGs is easy, as the metadata is stored directly within the image file, but this is not the case for PNG or GIF files. As far as I understood so far, WLPG saves its image data into a file called "Pictures.pd6". Looking into this file, I recognize various filenames and tags written in clear text, but I cannot make any sense of the way the data is structured. Is there a way I could pull the info I need from Pictures.pd6 (simply in the shape of filename + given tags + rating), or is there perhaps an easier way of achieving this?

Greetings,

Gharren
