+# Effortless Photo Organizer
 
 Just copy/hardlink photos (or video, or any other files) from one place to
 another, separating them in sub-directories like `$ROOT/year/month/day/`.
 
 ### TL;DR 
 
-I have a smartphone, I have a Syncthing ~~uugh... SmartThing~~ and all photos
-from smartphone nicely synced to my PC without my attention. But I can't just
-keep all photos in synced folder: if I'll clean my phone memory - all photos 
-from pc will be cleaned too. I need to not forget copy files in another 
-place before cleaning phone's memory. Also, I can't  just drop all photos in 
-one dir - I will not find anything there later, and a folder with thousands 
-photos looks like a bad idea from either side.    
-So I create this tool in one evening. All it does - copy (or create hardlinks for)
-files from one place to another, creating basic date-aware directories
-structure for that files.
+I use a smartphone along with Syncthing to seamlessly sync all my photos to my PC without any manual effort. However, there's a catch: I can't keep all my photos in the synced folder indefinitely. If I clear my phone's memory, the photos on my PC get deleted as well. To avoid this, I need to remember to copy the files to another location before cleaning up my phone.
 
+Simply dumping all my photos into one folder isn't a solution either — finding anything later would be a nightmare, and a folder with thousands of unsorted photos is far from ideal.
+
+To address these issues, I created this tool in just one evening. Its primary purpose is to copy (or create hardlinks for) files from one location to another, while organizing them into a simple, date-based directory structure.
+
+This tool was built for personal use and has been serving me well for quite some time without any problems. However, if you encounter any issues, feel free to report them — I’d be happy to help.

+## Migrating from v0.*

+## Organization modes
+
+Next organization modes supported:
+    
+- **copy** — copy files to target root. Make COW (using syscall) if FS supports it.
+- **hardlink** — create hardlink to the source file instead of copying. 
+The best choice if source and target are in same partition for compatibility
+and resource usage, but we can't chmod target files, because of original file mode will 
+be changed too. 
+- **move** — moves original files to new place.
+- **symlink** — create a symlink at the target for the source files. 
+
 ## Supported formats
-At this moment supported jpeg files with filled exif data or any other 
-files but with names matching pattern `yyymmdd_HHMMSS.ext`. Such 
-names format applied by android's camera software (I guess all cams 
+At this moment supported jpeg and tiff files with filled exif data and any other 
+files but with names matching pattern `yyymmdd_HHMMSS.ext` with optional suffixes after a timestamp.
+Such names format applied by the Android's camera software (I guess all cams 
 use this format, fix me if I'm wrong). 
 
-There is no support for changing names format without modifying  source code 
-at this time.
+Jpeg/Tiff files without modification date if exif will be fallen back to the name parsing.
+
+No able to change names format without modifying source code for now. Just because 
+I have reasons to believe that this format is the most popular for the application use cases.
+But let me know if you need different timestamp formats support.
 
 ## Usage
 ### One-shot 
-#### Copy files (make a COW if fs supports it)
+#### Copy files
 ```bash
-photocalog -mode copy -target ./photos/ ./sync/photos/*
+photocalog -mode copy -target ./photos/ -source ./sync/photos/
 ```
 
-#### Create hardlinks (only withing one disk partition)
+#### Create hardlinks
 ```bash
-photocalog -mode hardlink -target ./photos/ ./sync/photos/*
