I'd have to assume that you have need to work on photos *outside* of iPhoto? Otherwise, create your organization scheme *within* the program (left-hand pane; similar to playlists in iTunes) and all should be well. If you *on occasion* need to use a pic outside the program, just export it. If you need to work a lot outside the program, use something else (graphic converter, for example). It'll let you organize outside the program to your heart's content, then treat you to unrestricted browsing within. -- Non Illegitimi Carborundum -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
