Subject: [Leica] OT: Lightroom help

I am trying unsuccessfully to understand the whacky logic behind Lightroom.

I have to import pictures. Why? I don't know. I can browse to them, so 
browsing is not a problem, but I can't do anything until I import them.

I can import whole directories at once.

I can import a directory, do a lot a work, print, remember that I forgot 
a picture, browse to it, import it, and loose everything I had imported 
before. My library is now one picture, the last one I imported.

When I did have my whole library, I couldn't for the life of me figure 
how to export html-pages of just a few. It wanted to export everything.

I really want to like the stuff, but for the life of me, I can't find a 
reason why I should.

So ... what is the library? Why is it better than my folders?

Daniel
