Ok, so I have about 400 pictures spread out between about 100 folders all in My Pictures.

Unfortunately, they are totally out of order(Pics from my Greece vacation are in my "Phone" directory...?)



So I'm looking for a program that'll let me Delete all the individual directories and consolidate all files into one.

I then plan on using Windows Photo Gallery(STFU) to tag, label and rename them all.


P.S. I don't care for buying a program on eBay or otherwise
P.P.S. I use Vista x64 so the Zune theme no worky.

I know of no such program, the best I can suggest is using some CMD hax.

cd Phone
move * C:\Users\TheDonkey\Pictures
cd..
cd Elephants
move * C:\Users\TheDonkey\Pictures
cd..

etc.


Ain't naught wrong with Windows Photo Gallery, tbf.

Manually it is then

Although I'll do it with 2 explorer windows instead of the command line,

After setting up my linux server with only a CLI, I wince whenever I have to use the Windows CMD

Untested, but I'm pretty confident.
