How to use iPhoto Library in non Apple applications.

Question

Hello,
I am fairly new to Mac OS and love iPhoto. However, when I try to access my iPhoto library in Microsoft word, or on shutterfly or other applications I cannot access it. My migrated photos from my old PC are accessible, but iPhoto library is not. Can someone please advise? Thank you kindly.

The problem is that it's too straightforward.
In Facebook or whatever click on Open or Attach or what ever button you use get the photo up there.
That give you a window that looks like this:
See the word Photos in the red box indicated by the arrow? It is possible that you might have to scroll a little to see it... Click on that word and then you get this:
In other words: there's your entire iPhoto Library, all of it. Click on the shot or shots you want and click on open. That's it. Your photos on your website or facebook or in whatever app you used and you didn't even have to leave that app.
