Share an iPhoto library among multiple users

For one user, under "Get Info" for both the Pictures and iPhoto Library folders, I set permissions so that "Other" has both "Read and Write" permissions.

For the other user, simply point your iPhoto Library to the first user's iPhoto Library folder. It seems to work, and both users have write access to the photos.

whoops, seems that new albums don't seem to have write access without resetting permissions each time.

This is exactly the method I was going to try. When I read your reply I thought that the constant updating of permissions sounds like it might be a good job for automator. I am going to look into this when I have time.

Later, Frank
