Product Description:

Photo Buddy is a small Universal Mac OS X application that allows you to use more than one photo Library with Apple's iPhoto as well as with it's companion programs, iMovie and iDVD. The advantages of splitting your One Huge Photo Library into multiple, smaller ones include improved iPhoto performance, increased flexibility in organizing your digital photo collection, and a consistency with most other Mac applications that allow their respective data to be store in as many files (documents) as you like.

iPhoto Buddy uses a simple, streamlined interface that was inspired by iPhoto itself. Anyone that has used iPhoto will immediately feel right at home using iPhoto Buddy. It truly is a companion application--a real buddy!

iPhoto is a great app with one major flaw -- it is a single, huge, flat database. iPhoto Buddy fixes this so that you can have as many individual databases as you need. I just counted and found that I have 49 different iPhoto libraries, each covering some aspect of my work or interests. Plus the family album, of course. iPhoto Buddy is a professional tool for me, making a very important contribution to my workflow. I wouldn't be without iPhoto Buddy. I urge you to try it and to do what I have done -- make a donation to support it.
