My wife and my mother ("Folder? What's a folder?") have found F-Spot
to be an acceptable alternative to iPhoto. I've been forcing them to
use it by putting the higher-end photo printer on Ubuntu and putting
the work-a-day homework printer on the Mac. (I don't have to worry
about them ever finding how to use a shared printer, although that's
perfectly possible...) F-Spot doesn't have the one-button "make my
photo look better" button that iPhoto has (which is brilliant), but it
has all the other features you'd normally use, like red-eye removal.
You can even upload photos easily to Flickr from F-Spot. The iPhoto
add-on to do that recently became shareware. I think F-Spot became the
default photo handler in the latest version, Edgy.

I've had a skirmish with f-spot and cannot get the download button to do
other than to send me to a log-in page which won't recognise a user name -
which one is this ? I'm lower in the intelligence scale than your two dear
ladies. Help please. Robin
