Rebuilt for blazing performance, iPhoto makes sharing photos faster, simpler, and cooler than ever before. It also adds eye-opening features to the ones you already love, including Photocasting, support for up to 250,000 photos, easy publishing to the web, special effects, and new custom cards and calendars. So you can spread those smiles far and wide.
A lifetime of photos at your fingertips -- Your life is is one big photo opportunity -- which explains why your photo library is getting bigger every day. Well, good news: iPhoto now supports up to 250,000 images. That means you can confidently shoot over a thousand photos per week for the next 20 years. (Better get cracking.) Navigating your larger library is a breeze now too. As you move the scroll bar, a new see-through Scroll Guide appears to show you what photos or rolls are currently displayed.
Photocasting: a fantastic new way to share -- Imagine sending an album of favorite photos to the family, and having it change automatically on their computers when you update it on yours. That's what Photocasting is all about. And it's amazingly easy. Just create a Photocast album in iPhoto and publish it to .Mac (password-protected, if you wish). When Cousin Cindy subscribes, she'll see it in her iPhoto library just as you see it in yours -- with full-resolution photos that can be used for desktop pictures, printed albums, cards, and calendars. And whenever you add or subtract to your Photocast album, it will change in hers. Even people with PCs can enjoy an iPhoto Photocast, because all it takes is an RSS news reader to subscribe.
Dazzle with calendars, greeting cards and books -- Send a beautiful printed book of special photos to a friend. Put your kid's happy face on the cover of a custom card to announce a birthday party. Create a stylized, personalized calendar that rivals the ones you see at your local mall. Make all those things -- and many, many more -- with typical iPhoto ease. Just choose a photo album, click an Apple-designed template and let iPhoto work its magic. Add captions, fine-tune your layout, then click to order -- your professionally printed masterwork is delivered right to your door.
The website of your life -- It's one thing to share photos on the Internet. It's something else to share them on a wonderfully designed personal website.

Heck, if you can type those clever captions quickly enough, maybe even seconds. Simply export an iPhoto album to iWeb to create a new photo grid. Drag photos to rearrange them if needed, add those pithy words, then publish. Whoosh.

Riveting performances. Major effects. Inspired directing. Amazing how iMovie has changed the way people look at home movies. Now, with more cinematic tools to offer, iMovie makes you even more comfortable in the director's chair. And the editor's chair. And the special effects guy's chair. And, well, you get the idea. iMovie is the fastest and easiest way to turn home movies into dazzling Hollywood-style hits.

And, with the iLife Media Browser, you have full access to your original GarageBand songs. How's that sound?
