Abstract
A system provides via a software application, a file sub-system that organizes images of an event for evaluation of an object or event as the object or event changes over time. A base image may be established and other images of the object or event may be co-related to the base image so that a user may select the base image for display along with the other images showing time lapsed changes to the object or event.
