As far as storing your iPhoto library on an external drive is
concerned, I do this and it's fairly simple. You just need to create
an "iPhoto Library" folder on the external drive, and then put an
alias to it in your ~/Pictures/ folder with the same name. iPhoto
doesn't care if that folder is a real folder or an alias. Well,
almost - it may be the case that you need to create a "symbolic link"
and not an "alias" for iPhoto to work with it. Offhand I can't
remember. That issue is a flaw in Mac OS X IMHO, not really iPhoto.
Anyway, just try an alias since that's easy and quick and if iPhoto
coughs on it, then create a symbolic link. One or the other or both
will work. Try it and find out. To create a symbolic link you'll
either need to do that from the Terminal, or use a 3rd party tool
that simplifies making symbolic links.
The color shift bug has been fixed as of 10.4.2 and iPhoto 5.0.4 and
I've verified that.
