To be able to compare an image in iPhoto side by side with it's original, I have a script that builds the path to the "Originals" folder and opens the original.


The problem with this is that it allows the original to be modified and saved, thereby loosing the "real" original. I don't see that there's a way to have Preview open the image read/only.

Toyviewer is my fav. Its small and fast, it allows for all sorts of transformation. It never alters the original. It always produces a copy. It supports the four basic actions, though it doesn't have an applescript dictionary.


This works on my machine:
tell application "ToyViewer" to open {alias "Macintosh HD:Users:creator:Pictures:blueGrid.gif", alias "Macintosh HD:Users:creator:Pictures:blueGrid2.gif"}
