You can still use the Picasa desktop software, but it'll never get an update.

Google Photos also replaced our former Editors' Choice pick for photo software, Picasa, the desktop program Google acquired in 2004. Google Photos came about by salvaging the best part of the Google+ social network that no one wanted to use-the photo storage and sharing. Now, every picture you upload, no matter the size, counts against your allotted 15GB of free online storage with Google, which is shared with Gmail, Google Drive, and other Google services. It once offered truly unlimited backup of all the photos (and videos) you take for free, even if it did downgrade any pics over 16 megapixels. The news about Google Photos lately hasn't been rosy, though. But Google Photos (Opens in a new window) has grown fast since its launch in 2015. There's Dropbox, OneDrive, Amazon Photos, and iCloud, just to start. Internet users are not at a loss for services that automatically back up photos and provide access to them on any device.

Select your photos and click that logo. You’ll get a dialog to enter the username and password for your Picasa Web account. Enter your details and click Login. Now when you have some photos you want to share, you’ll see the Picasa logo a the sharing box at the top of the screen. Close WLPG if you have it open and run the install.Go to this page and download the Picasa Publisher.Fortunately there are other plugins available, including one for Picasa Web. Here is how to get that set up: On install, the default plugins let you share on Facebook, Flickr, SkyDrive and Windows Live Groups. Picasa uses a separate method and it can be a giant pain.Īnyway, now that I’m using Google+ more and more, it would be nice to be able to share photos right from within WLPG. Additionally and more importantly, WLPG saves the values you enter into the actual EXIF data that moves with the photo.

These tags are used in Windows Media Center and make it worth the effort. That is, I tag things like Events/Family Vacation/Seattle and Places/WA/Seattle. Then with Windows 7 I started using Windows Live Photo Gallery (WLPG).Ī lot of my decision was based around the ability to use nested tags. A few years ago I used Picasa as my photo managing software.
