Looking for some help here. I am really confused at how things are organized when it comes to iPhoto and the like. I am used to using Acdsee for my photos.
What I normally do - is creat a file on the HD name for what it contains. Like, pictures of my animals I make a folder called Animals and then several sub folders called dogs, cats, birds etc etc. If I delete a file, it's gone for good. If I move a file it's moved.
Now, in iPhoto - I make all these albums and move/delete these files in the albums only to find out they still exist under the photos section. I can understand why, but it's more confusing than anything. I also don't think it's making my organization any better. It's making it worse for me. It also lacks any way to resize a photo. Unless I am totaly missing it?
Are there any other apps out there? I don't think Acdsee makes a Mac version anymore. I am trying Adobe Lightroom - but I think I am having the same problem there as well.
HELP!
