Re: metadata stripping - was PF exhibit on 08/12/07

The idea is to make it hard for someone to just casually steal stuff by preventing right clicking and hoping when they steal it out of the cache they don't bother to look for the meta data. Of course it is much simpler to remove than even running a small program so a knowledgeable determined thief will get it easily.

It's easiest to use by making a *.bat file to run it in a DOS box

what you do is to stick all the images to be cleaned in a directory along with program jhead.exe, and if you want to keep stripped out thumbnails for any reason then make another folder in the directory called thumbnails

make the following into a *.bat file (that's done by opening notepad and typing in the bit below then saving it as 'clean.bat' ) and saving it along with jhead.exe in your 'cleaning folder'

@echo off
jhead -st "thumbnails\&i" *.jpg
jhead -purejpg *.jpg
