[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1382964, member: 38928"] You can either have iPhoto manage your images (this is the default setting). When you add an image to iPhoto it's copied to the iPhoto library. You can then delete the original if you have it somewhere else. The other mode is to have an unmanaged library (like Picasa) where when you add a photo it just references the location of the original rather than copying it into a separate library. Personally, I prefer Picasa over iPhoto but if you're going to use iPhoto to it's fullest potential I'd suggest having it add and managed all your images in it's own library. [/QUOTE]
