Email Photos from iPhoto '11 with a CC

Is it possible to email from within iPhoto '11 and have a 'cc' or 'bcc'?

I used to send photos to myself, then bcc a group of people with mail.

Is this a 'mail' only feature?

Seems odd to now only have a 'to' field.

Any thoughts?

you can have multiple recipients - just add them

You can check the box to included a BCC to yourself - and could then forward that

You can drag the selected photos to the mail icon in the Dock and send them via mail exactly as before

Thanks - I know about adding multiple recipients.

I was hoping to send to multiple people without everyone seeing everyone elses address!

I know about the bcc - but that is just to you only - not many.

If Apple was going to create this cool layout and emailing photos from within the program - why stop there? - why not include a cc and bcc field, just like in apple mail.

I know you can just drag the photos to the mail icon, etc - but it would be nice to integrate these fun new layouts and still have the flexibility of multiple BCC's.

I agree maxmaxie - where are the cc and bcc fields? Disappointing.

I agree with the consensus. This feature is pretty useless without BCC. Also CC is not the same as just adding people to the 'To:' Field. This is a failure.

Without CC and BCC when emailing iPhoto '11 photos, I have no use for iPhoto '11--and I am very disappointed that I spent the money for the new version. Is there a way to reinstall (go back to) the previous version of iPhoto? Thanks.

So just set Apple mail as the e-mail client and nothing has changed with e-mail in any way from the previous version

iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> Email using "Mail"

Not too hard for most people
