Why would anyone want to use iPhoto? It's poorly
designed from the start. You can't simply open or
view a photo file. You must import it into a Library
first, which is unnecessary in Photoshop or most other
photo editiing software. Photoshop does include a
separate browser that shows thumbnails of entire
folders full of photos, regardless of where they are
stored on the drive. Even has a navigation pane on
the side so you can easily work your way to the folder
you want.
Perhaps there is a similar photo viewer available
through versiontracker.com .
Think of iPhoto as an application for photo management, not necessarily
as an application photo editing. I use an external editor for photo
editing, but I still use iPhoto for photo management. My point was
that iPhoto is MUCH better than the filesystem for photo management and
viewing. I have no experience with any Photoshop product, so I cannot
comment on that.
