i just bought a new aluminium macbook and i want to transfer my entire iphoto gallery on my iMac to the iphoto on my Macbook. i also have most of the photos on my iphone, but not in the camera roll album. any suggestions on how i do this would be great!

I haven't done it myself but I believe you have to copy "YourUserName / Pictures / iPhoto Library" to your new mac. If you just replace the (emtpy) library on your new mac it will probably work fine. If it doesn't work: launch iphoto while holding down the option key, click "choose library" and point it to your copied library.
