I have not been using Bridge to its full abilities, to say the least.

What I want to do is go through the images in bridge, rate the keepers (I will rate them all with 1 star since it's basically pass/fail) and copy them to a folder that I can then put onto an external HD to send out for processing.

Searching for how to do this is difficult because I'm not sure how to condense the above paragraph into something google-friendly I found one article that said you can rate the images and then choose Edit>Select Labled and then go from there, but I don't have that option in my CS3 bridge.

Any advice?

My photo computer is tied up right now but look in the Help for "filter."

What you want to do is filter by rating and select "1 star."

Then when only your 1-starred images are visible (filtered), Select All (CTL-A or CMD-A) and then you should be able to Copy and Paste WITHIN BRIDGE. In other words, Copy, then navigate your folder structure inside of Bridge (Folders tab) and Paste them in your desired destination folder. Don't jump out to the Desktop in order to paste... rather, find the folder inside of Bridge and then Paste.

Sorry... this is from memory but it should get you in the right direction.

That is exactly what I was looking for Matt! Thanks a million.
