good plan...unless you edit your pictures
Authored by: baronworm on Jan 02, '06 10:46:45AM

Senor-

Your suggestion of relying on iphoto to point out duplicates when importing will only work if you have done ZERO editing of the originally-imported version of the photo.

e.g. I tried the following in iPhoto 5.0.4:
-imported a file ("IMG_8888.jpg") into my iphoto library
-tried a second import of the same file...
-...got the "Duplicate Photo" dialog (as expected)
-canceled the import
-did a "retouch" on this photo
-once again tried an import of the same file...
-...NO complaints from iphoto this time.
