I'll have to have a look at photo album. I have a bunch of cd's in cd boxes
with labels on them.  But I haven't, until now-again, had to deal with this
much volume. I probably have 80 cd's but they each have only two images on
them.
You can try smartscale any time you want.

I use Photoshop album to index my scanned images. Version 2 works just
fine. The key is to just keep the "proxy" thumbnail images in Photoshop
Album, but keep the originals elsewhere on your harddrive or on CDs. I
routinely burn my images to CD or DVD, then let Album index them for me.

The images I am indexing are anywhere between 50 MB and 101 MB--that's
more than 12 megapixels.

You really don't want huge originals in Album. You would run out of hard
drive space before long. Currently, I have over 80 CDs indexed.

This is slightly off-topic, but might be useful for people in here...

At some point I bought Adobe Photo Album 1.0.
It didn't support pictures larger that 12 mega pixel (this is from the
faq), and it choked on some of my pictures from my Pentax digicam. So
pictures from my filmscanner was out and I muttered a curse and moved
on. Version 1.0.1 came out and fixed these problems, and I actually
started using the program for cataloging my pictures.  I wasn't trilled
by the programed, but it performed well enough. Enter version 2.0.1
which I foolishly upgraded to. All my problems are back!

So if you are in the marked for photo cataloging software, you are
warned, I'd look elsewhere if I where you.
