I have two photos...one that is 15 years old and another taken yesterday. I would like to place them side by side to show a "before and after" type setting. Can I do that with iphoto on my Macbook Pro?? Thanks..

A quick-and-dirty way to do that would be to select your two photos in the event or in an album and then print them as a contact sheet with two columns. Print the contact sheet to pdf, with the setting "Save pdf to a folder as jpeg".
Import the saved jpeg back to iPhoto, rotate it, and crop it to the size you want.
You're really on a roll today. Good idea. Wish I'd have thought of that. Got a limerick to go with it? 🙂
Thank you, Old Toad. That is Aperture training. My standard procedure, when I need to copy and paste from one photo to the other using the clone brush. 😁
It is nice to be able to teach an Old Toad a trick for a change - I have learned so much from you.🙂
