iLife '06 should work on a G3 iBook with Mac OS X v10.3.9 or 10.4.4, but not everything will work.

I'm using iWeb on my PowerBook Pismo 500 Mhz and it works great! (slow but great)
Two ways for doing that.
One Way:
1) Go ahead and connect your PB to your more advance Mac with iLife 06 (example: G4 o G5) using a firewire cable.
2) Once connected, go to your Applications folder and drag iWeb to your applications Folder inside your PB. and that's it! enjoy.
Other Way:
1) instead of connecting your PB, use a Flash Memory Stick, an external drive or burn a CD to transfer iWeb. that's it. (just drag the application's icon to the media you will used.)

iDVD & Garageband require a G4 cpu, as does iMovie-HD, IIRC.........they are built at the core level to utilize the altivec subroutines for speeding up processing/conversions..........
iWeb should work though, and older versions of iMovie & iPhoto will too.....they'll just be kinda slow

Personally I find it hilarious that you have the hots for my gramma. Especially seeins how she is 3x your age, and makes your Brittney-Spears-wannabe 30-something wife look like a rag doll who went thru WWIII with a burning stick of dynamite up her a** :)

Right click on the iLife 06 installer, choose "Show Contents," and navigate to the "Installers" folder. iWeb and iPhoto install fine using their individual installers, no copying over from other machines needed. Just installed them on an iBook G3 900MHz.
Update:
This only works on 10.3.9 (which is what a G3 iBook should be running, imho). I tried it on my G4 powerbook, 10.4.7, and it would not install from the individual .mpkg files in the Installer folder.
