Field notes
PhotoSelects works as a focused first-pass layer rather than a photo library: it reads a folder locally, displays thumbnails, and turns tagged choices into a text filename list. The example workspace contains 688 photos, shows five available tags, and reports 34 selections. The page says thumbnail and project data remain in the browser, while manual import and export for portable backups are listed as planned rather than available functionality.
