Are there any magical tips for using the red-eye reduction tool? Too often I end up with "blocky" red-eye that looks like someone used an oversized square paint tool to color a few pixels black. Increasing the size of the constrain box only seems to make it worse (and can cause stray blotches of black around the eye). Any ideas?

  Red eye is tough to contend with. Try some of the techniques in tip 5 to help you reduce it in the first place. But if you have to address it in iPhoto, try this. Enlarge the picture so the pupils are big on your screen. Then select just inside of the pupil (one eye at a time) and apply the red eye removal tool. When you reduce the magnification back downward, the eyes should look more natural. It's not perfect, but better.
