[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 1165741, member: 59143"] I have to ask.. Why on earth would you use iPhoto for those tasks, when Lightroom is meant to do those things ? A huge point and strength of LR is in its organizational capabilities as a DAM. Keywording and tagging are easily accomplished, and you can not only find things by sorting through the multitude of options in its database, but it also allows you to keep your file structure true to how you like it, in a file tree. I can't really see the benefit of using iPhoto when you're using either Aperture or LR, really. Either of the former exports to multiple online storage facilities, social networking sites etc... They both allow access to cool printing and publishing templates (far better than iPhoto's) All I can see you doing is adding an useless and time consuming step in your workflow. Not to mention that iPhoto multiplies the amount of files needed in order to fulfill each of the sizes available for iPhoto publishing. More wasted disk space. So what's the deal? Doug [/QUOTE]
