Hi ,
Its often good Idea to reorganize your pictures (images) into folders based on date when its taken.
I have written a small python script which does nothing but displays a command suggestion to move your files in directories.
Here is script
How To Use
Lets say you have saved above script in a file info.py.
so if your execute this script
so based on your need (whether you want to achieve yearly/monthly or daily) chose the right option.
If you use this script with find command it will recursively print the command suggestion for all file. Save this output in a file and execute like a shell script (or batch file if you are on windows).
Here is command to get the monthly archival command-list
Note:
1.make sure that there is a space after m and \;
2.If you are on windows u need cygwin for find comand.
3.this python script uses PIL library (so you need python and PIL library)

How To Use
Lets say you have saved above script in a file info.py.

$./info.py filename m
this will print the month and year part of the date when this picture is taken.so based on your need (whether you want to achieve yearly/monthly or daily) chose the right option.
Sample output

Here is command to get the monthly archival command-list
$find . -name *.JPG -type f -exec ./info.py {} m \;
