Duane, I haven't used it but I was reading an article about Adobe's Lightroom (http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshoplightroom/) ... sounded interesting and maybe better. I agree that iPhoto's triplification of photos is annoying. (nice to meet you Lisa, I just added your RSS to NNW!) you’re not fat.

My go through so much hard drive space because of it. I've been told aperture is a nice compromise between iPhoto and Photoshop. I'm going to try and find a "test copy" to play with soon.

Command-Option start iPhoto brings up the dialog to let you rebuild just about everything in iPhoto; you can address the thumbnails without completely rebuilding the database.
