it make sense to use a different version of an image for an image file only because it is in an album?

7.4.2020 - Introducing FotoArray Version 1

am really pleased to finally be able to introduce FotoArray photo software. This software has, in certain ways, been a lifetime in the making. Julian Ziersch started taking pictures about the same time he started programming and throughout his life, they have both remained a passion of his. But only recently, when he realized that he had over 300,000 photos did he start dreaming about software that would make it easy and intuitive to locate specific photos, group photos together, assign them key words, import them from wherever they were, view their data and much, much more.
