What type of meta data are you talking about EXIF or IPTC? I know EXIF can be displayed. I'm not sure about IPTC since I don't use it.

I'm planning on adding an IPTC module that does two way sync between the G2 database and your images. That is, when you add an image to G2 it can pull metadata from the image into the database, and then whenever you modify the image in G2 it can sync the data back into the image. Stay tuned.

Thanks for the quick reply. The IPTC Meta data is exactly what I am after. Please let me know how you make with this and if there is anything I can do for you.

I found this

IPTC

IPTC data holds textual info about categories, headers and descriptions. They can be entered e.g. in Adobe Photoshop's File Info dialog. EE will get image descriptions, headers and locations etc. from IPTC, if that data is available and if IPTC module has been installed in PHP.

I don't know if this helps at all

Example 4.

getimagesize() returning IPTC
<?php
$size = getimagesize("testimg.jpg", $info);
if (isset($info["APP13"])) {
$iptc = iptcparse($info["APP13"]);
var_dump($iptc);
}
?>

Coppermine (http://coppermine.sourceforge.net) and 4Images (http://4homepages.de) also have IPTC support. Of all photo galleries I like "gallery" best please add IPTC.
