here's the issue: my mother lives half way across the country. i posted some pictures to my .mac homepage just fine. but, now she wants to import the photos into HER iPhoto library. seems like a reasonable enough proposition.

the only option i see available are for her to is to, one at at a time, right-click save each photo as she views it in the homepage slideshow; save to her HD; then import those photos into iPhoto.

am i missing something easy, or is this the only way to share photos across iPhoto libraries (aside from burning a disc and mailing)?

in looking for a better solution i discovered that if i publish .mac slides, i have a folder of higher resolution photos at http://homepage.mac.com/mydotmacuser...Slide%20Shows/

however, i havent been able to do anything with that folder (at least nothing simple enough i can pass on to my mother)

i dont even know--does iPhoto support the scripts folder like iTunes (via a little pulldown menu)?--i could probably walk my mom thru setting that up if i can provide a working script.

any other ideas out there?
if it aint' broke, break it.

the right-click save option is probably the best.

You might also put the photos in your iDisk's public folder, and tell you mom how to open that/copy the pictures to her HD and import them.
