To clarify some apparent misconceptions...
iPhoto, like NisusWriter, (I had to get that in to stay "on topic") is
an application that is not part of any operating system installation.
If iPhoto was on your machine before the Tiger update, it is because it
was a part of the application bundle that came with the computer.
Installing Tiger would not have removed iPhoto (or NisusWriter) unless
a "disk wipe" preceded the installation. If that were the case, then
the restoration of iPhoto would be analogous to the restoration of any
other application that needed to be reinstalled. The iPhoto installer
would be found on the install (or restore) disks that originally
shipped with the computer. Depending upon which particular set of
disks came with your Mac, it's either in a folder labeled something
like "Optional Software", or is accessible from an optional install
menu when booting from the main install disk. If you can't find it
easily, grab "Pacifist" from VersionTracker and use it to scan the
install disks that came with your computer to isolate the iPhoto
installer. After it's been located and installed, a quick trip to
Software Update will bring it up to the the latest incantation for the
particular version that was installed.
If iPhoto 2 was installed, the latest available update is iPhoto 2.0.1.
If the iLife bundle was originally installed, then you'd be looking
for iPhoto 4.

Hi jem,
Gee, that's hard. I always thought that iPhoto came with the basic
installation but the only reference I can fin is on my .Mac account
where it says iLife [an extra] provides iPhoto 5, iMovie HD, iDVD 5,
GarageBand 2 and iTunes 4.7. These ar out of date.
iTunes is certainly free but not sure about the others.
So, go to <http://www.apple.com/ilife/iphoto/> which seems to confirm
it is part of iLife and therefore costs. Yes, there is a BuyNow
button. USD79.00
This is iPhoto 5 and has much more to offer.

I finally decided to give Tiger (10.4.2) a try, and I find iPhoto.app
has disappeared from the standard installation. Is now the only way
to keep it to buy iPhoto 4x?
Thanks for assistance, and apologies for OT.
