I use iPhoto for all my images, and need to get my head around how it stores images, particularly when edited. If I rotate a photo, for example from horizontal to landscape, then I think it stores the old version, and the new version. I can use the menu to 'Revert to Original' - which shows the unrotated image.
According to iPhoto, my library size is 24.8gb.
According to Finder, the library size is 34.2gb
I would like to reclaim this nearly 10gb back, as if I have rotated a photo, I do not need the original version! It would also be nice to change the iPhoto behaviour, so when you rotate an image, it does not create a new file.
I have heard of iPhoto diet, but that does not work reliably for newer versions.
I use iPhoto 7.1.4 (the latest) and any help or advice would be appreciated.
