Welcome to the OpenphotoPod website.
About
OpenphotoPod is an application which enables you to manage galleries on your iPod (of the 5th Generation and iPod nano=> probably). This means: the application allows you to load pictures from your Computer, scale them and convert them into the correct formats for your iPod. Once stored on your iPod, you can watch them whenever wherever you want. (Even TV viewing is possible which the correct accessories).
The reason for this project is that iTunes, which is only available for Windows© , does not have a "real" gallery managent. You can only synchronize folders, not edit them on your iPod etc. OpenphotoPod, reads the Photo database file on your iPod and edits it.
Also OpenphotoPod is/was written in Java, which is plattform indepentant. So you can edit your iPod photos on each device which consists of an USB Port, some kind of Filesystem and Java. (until now I've just tested it on Linux and Windows. I would be pleased to here if there are any Problems on other OS's).
