I'm almost finished tidying up my photos from my PC, and will soon be ready to import them into iPhoto. Can you check that I'm going about the import the correct way, please?
I now have a series of individual folders. Stuff like 'Alps 2010', 'Alps 2011', 'Cervennes 2012', etc.
Initially, I was just going to throw them all into one folder, and let iPhoto import the lot in one go, but reading this thread makes me think I should leave them in discrete folders, and import them a folder at a time, so I can tag them with words like 'Holidays', 'Alps', 'Girls with nice bottoms' etc.
Will I get a series of dated events in iPhoto? I'm expecting to see an event for each day I was in the Alps in 2010 and also for 2011, etc.
Now... I understand the principle of splitting an event. i.e. You go to a village fete in the morning and take photos, then in the evening you go to a birthday party and take more. iPhoto will give one event for that day, which you split into two.
However, what do you do with your holiday photos? Do you leave them as discrete daily events, or do you merge all the photos from each day into 1 event?
Thanks for such an enlightening thread.
