Maybe I've been missing something that you guys have solved with LR.

I love the way Bridge works as an image viewer - you just view the image rather than importing it into a catalog (like iPhoto and Aperture also). That is all I want to do in the "view" stage.

Is there some way to use LR and NOT create all the large messy catalogs? I did a run of the catalog file sizes and if i were to import all of my files, it wouldn't fit on my macbook 256gb SSD, so I gave the app away.

How to you cope with these big catalogs?

Thanks,

Tom
