Apple must be pleased with the Aperture ecosystem that seems to be starting up. People are creating apps that enhance or complement Aperture, which is always a sign of interest in a product.The latest entrant into this market is Timeature. This simple app allows you to edit the date that is associated with a picture in Aperture, a field that is not user editable. Why would you need this? Aperture fills in this field with data for the EXIF information including in the picture it is importing. If the picture doesn't have this information it uses the date of the import, so you can see that some pictures might be incorrectly marked.
Timeature is shareware, so if you find it useful cough up some dough.

I think you mean complement, unless the applications scroll or pop-up compliments about Aperature ;)

Neat tool... I'll recommend it to my "Pro" friends.
I wonder if there is an iPhoto equivalent? I sometimes encounter "rolls" of photos that have come from a camera with an incorrect date/time setting, sometimes off by YEARS. It would be useful to be able to correct the problem in a single step.

You can use Darwin Ports to install a tool called exif and do something like this:
exif --ifd=0 -t DateTime --set-value="2006-10-18 14:53:43" *.JPG

You've got a really vile HTML ad on the home page (upper right hand corner) that is making the entire right hand side of the page blink white, black and grey in Safari.
Apparently, no matter how many times I reload, I'm still the 1,000,000th visitor.
