Thanks for the tip Jason. I was just thinking about this about a week ago. As a web designer (among other things), I really should have had this sort of thing in my toolbox a long time ago. I was recently making use of someone else's desk at work who is a formally trained web/graphic designer (I pretty much have just hacked away at it since I was a kid and had my Amiga 1000). I noticed that he had a bunch of these sorts of photo CD-ROMs on his desk (his came with thick, full-color books showing every picture - not sure if those kinds are pricier). I made a mental note that I needed to look into these things. How timely.

So how do you like PhotoImpact? A friend of mine recommended this to me a long time ago but I use Jasc Paint Shop Pro. I tried the demo of PhotoImpact but didn't feel comfortable with the completely different interface and it seemed like there were some features Paint Shop Pro had that it lacked, but my friend swore by it. I've also thought about biting the bullet and buying PhotoShop. Paint Shop Pro has a new version out now, but the list of improvements didn't overly impress me.
