Extensis Portfolio is probably what you're looking for. They did allow free
demo/evals from their www site -- extensis.com, I think.

Subject: Request for tool to catalog images
Our company is looking for a tool to help us catalog graphics files (mostly
TIF
images, but also others [(e.g., Illustrator and Photoshop formats like
EPS]). We currently have 500+ images, but the number is quickly growing.
We would like to be able to associate key words with each graphic so that
we can do a search and all associated graphics will come up. We are
currently looking at ThumbsPlus and Cumulus. Has anyone used either of
these or can you suggest another program?
