Picture Archive 1.2

I recently purchased a Synology NAS to offload, backup and organize my huge collection of family photos.  For the most part, these pictures were in one folder on my PC, but in no particular order.  Before moving them to the NAS, they needed organization which I was not about to take on one by one.

So, I whipped up this application to root through a source folder, look at the date taken (or last write time) attribute, then copy or move the file to another location based on certain variables.  These variables can be determined using multiple properties of the source file.  In any case, I thought others may find this useful as well (and don't be shy to donate if it works well for you :-).

If you have issues and need to output debug information, open the PicArchive.exe.config file in NotePad or the editor of your choice and remove the comment tags as shown below.  The configuration file and logs will both reside in the same location as the .exe.
