indeed the matter of upgrading this thread to a photo database or starting a second sticky for that needed some time and thoughts. Thanks Ruslan for having opened this agenda ! Thanks for your votes. 4:3 for two stickies.
The basic re-organisation measures are taken. This one here is and remains the good old id sticky. The new RKT photo database is installed and "re-started" : http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 8#p1394798
The first photos provided for the start of the Database are added to it and the original posts inside here have been deleted.
I've come to a solution which combines all ideas and efforts with regard to the existing index. For now the index is linked within the photo database. Step by step I will pick and transfer photos matching the quality criteria of the database to the new index there. Transfer means to add the link (photo inside here) !
Hopefully there is an agreement by all with this new handling and struture in the end. ..., I don't make another operation in this "wandernder Kessel" here, so, no further suggestions on stratetic level, please..

Kind regards
Bernd, Mod
