You're right, Sierra. It still uses just one main Library, but it's a whopping big Library - support for 250,000 images. I think the Albums and Smart Albums are supposed to do help break up the main Library into something more manageable. There are limitations to this approach, but it's simpler than having multiple libraries. The great thing about iPhoto is that it is so easy. It doesn't do everything that I want it do, but it is a great program for simple media management.

I do like iPhoto quite a bit, but I just wanted a little more ooomph! I'm spending a lot of time playing with iView right now. I should be making my son's baby album, but I'm having too much fun organizing and tagging all the digi stuff I've found.

Deanne and chellouise, are you two doing okay with iPhoto? I hope I've answered your questions, or at least not confused things even more.
