Custom Labels
Rename the default color labels like Red, Green or Purple to something more descriptive (i.e. Social Media, Cover). Each gallery can have its own custom labels and it should also be possible to hide certain colors at all.

Can we have more colours? I need to 'label' people so I can separate and group for approval - can we add more labels?

Giacomo Iacoangeli: Hi Giacomo, I think I understand what you mean. With custom labels you'll be able to only customise/rename the defaults. What you're looking for is cross-gallery tagging and searching, similar to what DAM (Digital Asset Management) tools are using, right? I will check out QuickBooks. Thanks for your explanations!

Michel Luarasi: Also, making a switch to make comments searchable would be an quick fix but not as elegant (people would enter tags/label as comments)

Michel Luarasi: Hi Michael, thank you for the replay.
Probably that would be a good proxy. The objective is to increase searchability and discovery of pictures in a massive archive!
By adding predefined attributes/label and creating the ability to search by them.
Here the 2 advanced features that you could be on top on what you are doing:
1) permission on labeling (limit the people that have the permission to actually modify or add a label…however, everyone should have the option to propose a tag)
2) allow to group tags (similar to Classes or Tags in QuickBooks) - Imagine i create 3 groups of tags for my pictures: Geography (and tags within that group are: USA, Italy, Spain, India, China, Other); Location (City, beach, Desert, Mountain); Subjects (Group, Portrait, panoramic).
Now it would be easy to search for all the pictures that show a group of people on a beach in Italy or China!
QuickBooks as a great execution of Tags (you should looks at it)…totally different industry but hundreds of millions on product development!
