I've been considering buying Scraproom Software as well. From what I can tell, it looks alot like ACDSee but hopefully a lot more stable! I gave up on ACDSee awhile back after it crashed a 3rd time! One thing I'm curious on though, has anyone tried the actual scrapbooking portion of Scraproom Software. I've heard you an bring photos into a frame & it snaps them into place like Craft Artist does & I like that feature. I'm not sure how their shadows work though. Just curious if anyone has tried it.

I'm loving evernote! I use the web clipping tool to clip the main image on the website that I bought from, then copy and paste additional images in. I love that I can tag each thing with up to 20 tags. I store everything on external drives and dropbox.

I used Lightroom (I have 6, and versions 5 and up support PNG images) and keep separate catalogs for my photos and digital supplies. I keep a folder structure of Store->Designer->Kit, except for big store collabs like The Lilypad's BYOC. I keep BYOCs (and their other subscriptions like Mixed Media Monthly and Memory Pockets Monthly) together since they all coordinate. I find that I scrap the most with those bigger subscriptions, so I don't buy much else except for digital versions of paper lines I like (Echo Park, Basic Grey at Snap Click Supply, and Project Life at BeckyHiggins.com).
I don't tag anything except for my templates, and those are only tagged with the number of photos so I can quickly find one that will work for the number of photos I want to scrapbook. Those tags feed into a Lightroom Smart Collection, so if I have, say, 3 photos to scrap, I just open the "3 Photos" smart collection, scroll through the available templates, and pick one. Since I almost always scrap with a bigger collab or a bigger collection that was a paper line, it's really easy to just look at the previews to see if the general color scheme will work for my photos, so I just don't bother tagging. If I need something really specific that's not in the collab I'm working with, then I can almost always find it by searching the file names of the supplies in my library.
