I have taken it upon myself to archive photographs of my family, both on my side and my wife's size. The pictures are not a problem other than the usual quality issues with old transparencies and prints. My father was an enthusiastic photographer (from who I inherited my now unused IIIg) and he left behind many transparencies and I have scanned in most of his, my wife's and my own Kodachromes and Ektachromes and I am now in the process of scanning pictures from my wife's family, most of which are prints. Since I don't know or recognise many people in the older pictures here I created a Zenfolio gallery and have asked particularly the older people in the family write notes on whatever the know about individual photographs as comments in the Zenfolio gallery. Some of the comments from my eldest brother-in-law are turning to be very interesting and I want to be able to archive them along with the pictures. The pictures are all in Lightroom but Lightroom does not seem to support extended text metadata (a paragraph or two long sometimes). In the Library module I see a "Comments" field but can do nothing with it. There's a message below that says "Selected Service does not support comments". Is there a way to have a paragraph or two of text associated with pictures in Lightroom? Or is my best bet to export the pictures to some other software library that will support text associated with pictures? If so, any suggestions as to which software would be best? I can of course leave the pictures and comments on the Zenfolio gallery but I am keen not to keep these pictures on line indefinitely or to at least have a backup on a disk at home. I will really appreciate any help. - Vikas
