my name is mwd

I’ve been a big fan Realmac Software’s Ember for a while – it’s a great scrapbook for random screen shots and pictures that don’t fit with my arty pictures on Flickr, and don’t belong in my albums on SmugMug.

Whilst I use LittleSnapper for managing screenshots and uploading them to Ember, there was no easy way to get my photos from Aperture onto Ember, so when I bumped into the Realmac guys at None earlier this month, I decided to fix that state of affairs :)

Thus I’ve just put out EmberExporter for Aperture, a simple little plugin that lets you export your photos straight to Ember:

It’s a simple plugin, which just lets you select a bunch of images, set things like the titles and tags, and put them straight into Ember. Originally this was written just for me, but I got such a positive reaction from people, including the very nice people at Realmac, so I’ve decided to put it out for all.

The only niggle at the moment is that whilst it works with Aperture 3, it only does so in 32 bit mode. I need to wait until Aperture 3 arrives for my immanent birthday so I can work on 64 bit support :)
