My iPod is driving me crazy!

When I scroll through the photos I've uploaded to my iPod, it displays the date created from the photo's EXIF data in the upper right hand corner of the screen. The problem: The "date created" is the date the photo was created on the computer's hard drive, not the date the photo was taken. Since I'm synching the iPod from a fairly new computer, most of the photos have the same creation date.

It seems like there must be a way to make the iPod display the date taken, rather than the creation date -- because who the heck cares about the creation date?!? -- but I can't find it. I even downloaded Exifer to try to just change the EXIF data on the photos in question, but the program crashed every time I tried to open it.

Help.... me.....................!
