Help: iPhoto import to album, then pic jumps back to Events

I'm a new Hazel user and loving it. There's just one feature I'm having trouble with: importing to iPhoto albums.

I've got a Hazel rule that goes like this:
- Take photos dropped into folder X.
- Import them into iPhoto album X.
- Throw away the original file.

It works perfectly, but then the photo bounces back out of the album and into Events (which I've got set to sort manually).

Any ideas why this might be happening?

Thanks.

I'm not sure if that's Hazel. Are you saying that the photo disappears from the album? As for events, Hazel doesn't have any control of what events a photo gets assigned to. Is it possible you have something else in place doing this?

Oh, nevermind! Hazel's working perfectly. I'm just confusing albums and events (I'm not a fan of how iPhoto organises images).

Thanks for getting back to me.
