What was MS thinking? ... They say they had a "better idea" with the metro applications they provided. Too bad no one agrees.
You can still get Picture Manager, and MODI, for FREE. See link below:

If you just want MODI or Picture Manager 2007or OneNote 2007, you can start the SharePoint installation process then select the **“Custom” install option.**This will allow you to deselect SharePoint and any other product you do not want wasting space on your machine.
Download SharePoint Designer 2007
- Do a “Customize install” to select SharePoint / MODI (under Office Tools) / OneNote
/ or select only “Picture Manger” if that is what you want.

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=16631 - SharePoint 2010 180 trial
Note: the free download of SharePoint Designer 2007 includes a few surprising extras:
·
OneNote 2007
·
MODI- MS Office Document Imaging
·
MS Office Picture Manager
·
Office Shared Features > Clip Organizer (Clipart)
NOTE: when one person ran that download it did not include OneNote. I redownloaded and ran it and did see it. We never did resolve what the cause was.
Here are instructions on how to do a Custom install of only selected items from Office setup:
Install or remove individual Office programs and components
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/access-help/install-or-remove-individual-office-programs-and-components-HA010354261.aspx
(Select only “Picture Manger” if that is what you want.)
Note: 2007 version is Free and includes MODI. 2010 version does NOT include it (don’t know if it is free).
