IPhoto Library size and deleting pictures

Sunday October 12, 2008 at 03:38PM

Anyone using IPhoto ever wondered why the library size can get so huge?

Here's my german article about it.

Summary in english:

Use finders' "show package contents" to see the data folder in IPhoto and scan it for old and unwanted thumbnails and video-files. Deleting in IPhoto does NOT delete all the contents. IPhoto keeps thumbs of ALL pictures and videos you have ever imported.
