However, the length of the list hints that iPhoto offers a lot of ways to identify photos for inclusion in such an album. As a photo dabbler, you may not fully understand what all those things are. Clicking the first menu (the one that reads Album by default) produces entries for Any Text, Description, Date, Event, Filename, Keyword, My Rating, Place Photo, Title, Aperture, Camera Model, Flash, Focal Length, ISO, and Shutter Speed. If you were to click OK at this point, you would create a smart album containing any image that appears within any of your regular ol’ albums.Īs with other “smart” features, you configure iPhoto’s smart album conditions through a series of pop-up menus. Within this sheet you’ll find a field for entering a name for your smart album, as well as a single condition configured to read Album Is Any. To make such an album, choose File > New Smart Album (Command-Option-N). The original image stays within your iPhoto library and in the location where you originally selected it.Īs I explained earlier, iPhoto creates smart albums based on one or more conditions that you set up. Rather, you’re simply deleting the reference to it from the album.
The one behavior that differs from the image you originally selected is that when you delete an image from an album, you’re not throwing it away. You can treat images within albums just as you do any other image in iPhoto. Additionally you can enlarge their thumbnails by adjusting the Zoom slider at the bottom-left corner of the iPhoto window. You can now arrange the album’s images in the order you prefer just click and drag to move them. Regular ol’ albums are easy to make and a good way to organize images. The name of the album is automatically highlighted, which is your cue to rename it. If you’ve selected one or more events, images, or faces, and you choose this command, the new album will contain all the selected images (including all the images within selected events and faces). (And, perhaps, enable the Don’t Ask Me Again option if you’d prefer that iPhoto butt out the next time you do this.) If that’s exactly what you intended, because you’d like to add images at a later time, click Continue. If you do so with nothing selected-meaning, you haven’t selected any images or events-a window will appear asking if you’re sure you want to create an empty album. The first is to choose File > New Album (Command-N). You have a couple of ways to create a standard-issue album.
