If you have a Mac with OS X and a digital camera, iPhoto For Dummies unlocks all the secrets to taking great digital pictures and doing just about anything with them. And if you already have piles of photos scanned into your computer from other sources, don’t fret—iPhoto works with them, too. Discover the easy ways to edit and enhance photos, fix common problems like that eerie “red-eye” effect, organize your photos for easy access and security, and even how to create a hard-bound photo album. And because pictures are twice the fun if you share them, iPhoto For Dummies shows you how to print those great shots for framing, turn them into a slide show or a Web site gallery, or even mix them with video clips and music to create a movie you can burn to a DVD to produce a truly one-of-a-kind gift. A jargon-free guide to importing, organizing, editing, and sharing digital or scanned photos using the latest version of Apple’s iPhoto application for Mac OS X. Softcover.
