Here's the problem: I'm a pretty experienced armature photographer
who recently switched to Digital SLR (20D) from a combination of film
SLR and P&S Digital. I feel I'm getting pretty good in at shooting
and then 'fixing' RAW files in Photoshop CS. I also have iPhoto.
Right now my 'system' for processing photos is so backwards (or so
I feel) that most of my photos 'just sit there'. I don't find the
time to process, share or do anything with them. I'm stuck, waiting
for some help. Here's what I do now: I let iPhoto upload all my
photos, I share directly from iPhoto/.mac a few family pics that look
half decent and then open Photoshop, accessing the "Originals"
folder in iPhoto folder, processing the RAW files and adding them back
to the iPhoto folder, replacing the previous JPG (by the way, I shoot
only RAW, how did this JPG get there? Is it something iPhoto does?)
Anyway, if I use batch processing in Photoshop, it leaves the files as
RAW and doesn't update my JPGs... There's also the question of
sending it to a printing shop- should I send a JPG? Should it be in the
maximum size? Should I resize it? Using what? Should I ditch iPhoto and
use Photoshop only, using the browse function as my library management.
I'm lost, truly and totally. Can you help? Or at least direct me to a
resource that can? P.S- don't want to spend the money on Aperture and
tried Adobe Lightroom- it's too heavy for my single processor G5 and
my pretty big photo library...
Thanks a million (untouched photos)

Is photographing armatures difficult? Do you shoot when they're spinning or
stopped?
What a wind-up.
