Share iPhoto4 libraries across the Internet
Please don't blow your own horn...When you install MyPhoto it moves your iPhoto Library into the MyPhoto folder and replaces it with an alias...So if you just drag the MyPhoto folder into the trash and click empty...ALL YOUR PHOTOS ARE DELETED, WHICH IS WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO ME...so please, don't blow your own horn. Now I have several days of work to do putting all my photos back in iPhoto, editing, cropping, fixing.....

As I've explained to you via email, myPhoto moves the iPhoto Library to your sites folder because iPhoto can handle aliases fine and by default, Apache can't. There are customizations you can make to Apache to get around this, but for some reason, I have not had consistent results in terms of reliability with all of my users and since most users don't want to customize Apache themselves if something goes wrong, this is a big burden in terms of support and a big hassle for the average user (who doesn't want to know of something like Terminal.app).

"Aware of the oddities in my install" says it all! Moving an iPhoto library from the place Apple intended to be instead of using the features of the Apache webserver that would do the job is an oddity and leads to problems. Whether you accept the blame or not, my photos did not survive your oddities, but they would have survived using Apache correctly. I would never have dragged my iPhoto library to the trash can. I drag an app to the trash can all the time without suffering data loss.
