La la land
Hi everyone,

So far, when transferring photos from my cameras, I always download the photos to a folder first, and then I import them to iPhoto manually by importing the files into iPhoto.

I don't know if this is what most of you does, but for me this has been very effective because this made me platform independent (If I copied and pasted or burn the files into dvd, any machine that can read jpeg can view the photos). However with iPhoto we sometimes has keywords and so on, so I thought it might be a good idea to actually let iPhoto manage the photos. But the only way to do this to delete everything in my library and re import and copy them to iphoto..

My question is, how do we do that without re importing? In iTunes, this would be simply consolidate my library, but this option is not available for iPhoto...
