I searched an could not find this topic....
Well, I have more than 3000 pictures into iPhoto, and I have dutifully organized them into a couple dozen albums.
But I find the simple list of albums kinda annoying. My list is a lot longer than the window allows. I wish I could nest albums inside each other like finder folders. Can't seem to do that???
Also how can you have the newest albums created at the top?? Why can't this window operate like a finder window???
If the apps are supposed to be alike...Address book allows for nested groups, so albums should be the same as well as playlists.
???

At the moment, I don't believe you'll find any way to create sub-albums as such in iPhoto. I agree, it'd be nice to categorise them some more, especially with lots of photos (I have over 10,000). My hunch is that it will be in the next version of iPhoto, whenever that comes.

Yeah, you would think that this kind or better organizing tools would be a natural progression s now that people have thousands of photos and hundreds of albums. I wish the keyword assigning process was easier and more streamlines.
plus I would love a traditional magnifying glass in the editing toolbox-that zoom is very counterintuitive to me (used to photoshop Quark, InD and drawing programs) Yeah I don't do a lot of editing iniPhoto, but I would like to zoom easier to check our red-eye (which I think iPhoto is great at!!)

A tip with the zooming (not sure if you know this already) is that you can select an area you want to zoom into first, then use the zoom slider, and it will zoom into that area.
I find that quicker than zooming in to a desired size, then scrolling around the picture, then adjusting the zoom.

I found a great feature that let me minimise the number of Film Rolls I had.
If you want to merge a number of Film Rolls together, then simply select the film roll you want to merge into another and drag it onto the Film Roll you want it to go into.
The original film roll will be removed and all the photos will be moved into the other film roll.
This let me move a lot of small similar rolls together.
This also work on a photo by photo basis, i.e. you can move photos from one film roll to another.

Purple..:
Is it just me...but drawing a marquee and then clicking the zoom arrows/slider seems to take twice as many clicks as selecting the magnifying glass than then drawing a box that is exactly as big as you want the window to zoom??
I open a photo in a new window, draw a marquee around the detail area,and then use the arrow buttons. But it always takes 5-6 clicks of the button to finally zoom into my marquee. What the heck am I missing??
I used the feedback page-cool.
