Thanks. Good to know about the non-destructive modifications. What I am looking for is something that does what iphoto was designed to do, right fro the start, but which it seems to have some problems with: to have collections of thumbnails arranged in a catalogue. Click on the thumbnail to see the image full size. So it's a way of organising photos.
All the bells and whistles are great, but the key is the role as an organiser of images in thumbnails.
