I have recently swithched and I'm getting used to iPhoto6. (Kinda miss PS on my laptop) However I digress.
I found a way to resize the touch-up tool and the red eye tool and change the degree of change in iPhoto
With an English keyboard layout
Type Caps lock + Ctrl+9
Undo the caps lock
Click the retouch tool
You can now with tab key toggle between the circle and Crosshairs
Use the [ & ] to increase and decrease the size
Use the {&} keys to Increase or Decrease the value of the opacity of change
Another useful tip I found was when editing a photo. If you have a grey in the picture that is about 17% grey(Middle grey. All light meters used to work from this value)Like the grey card Photographers sometimes use you can adjust your photo by simply Cmd clicking it (Watch the histogram when you do it).
You can then simply toggle between before and after by using Cmd+ctrl to see if you like the changes if not undo them with cmd z
I can't say I found all this out alone I just want to share it. Have fun with iPhoto
