I've got a question; How can you make adjustments to more than one image at a time? Im using trial version to see how I like it. Its pretty good except for the face that I can't figure out how to do this. Help?

Make the adjustments to one image, then right click on the image and choose "Lift Adjustments" Then multi select the images you want to get the same treatment, right click and choose "Stamp Adjustments"

you effin amazing! Probably would've taken me days to figure that out. K now… what if I've stamped some adjustments on a group of photos and I then tweak a couple out of that group and and then want to sharpen all of them up without having to manually go a adjust each image without losing those few tweaks I did.
Can you lift specific adjustments or does aperture not allow you to do that?

Yes, once you lift adjustments the Lift & Stamp HUD will pop up. You can then remove whatever adjustment you don't want stamped from the list.

How I use it is if I've spent a day shooting in a similar environment, like a day at a park or something, there's a basic color correction that will cover most images so I'll take a representative image, get it to a good enough point and lift and stamp those adjustments. Then I go image by image and make the fine adjustments. Since they all get the same initial settings if I make a change that I think would benefit the rest I don't have to worry about wiping adjustments.

this aperture is pretty great… I found it a bit daunting at first but Im finding that its really intuitive. Im so used to the Adobe shortcuts though that I think I might customize a few of them in aperture.

I tried the trial version of aperature II but had it crash a couple times on me as well. Just went back to using Lightroom, while maybe not as ituitive at aperature it is a little more robust - i like to tag images with folder name / file name when printing contact sheets - can't do that in aperature.

I liked them both, found Lightroom to be more powerful but it wasn't more powerful enough to justify paying $100 more.

A friend of mine who is photographer told me he thought Nikon Capture II should be great for converting RAW and then uses Aperture for everyhting else.
