The easy way to find, edit, and share your photosPicasa for Mac has been designed to play nicely with iPhoto.
Picasa doesn't store any of your photos. It simply scans your hard drive and displays the photo files it finds. In this way, Picasa folders represent the actual directories containing photos on your computer's hard drive.
Picasa handles the iPhoto Library in the same way, with a small variation made for the way in which the iPhoto Library organizes your photos: If you've made edits in iPhoto, each album or event in your iPhoto Library contains an 'Originals' folder and a 'Modified' folder.
Picasa scans the photos and videos in both the 'Originals' and 'Modified' folders, and displays a single collective folder with the most recent version of each file.
Control large photo collections
Picasa can find and display a huge number of images (now up to a million photos!) from all over your computer. And Picasa automatically keeps track of new photos on your hard drive.
Edit without worry
Picasa's easy-to-use editing tools apply 'virtual edits' to your photos, until you're sure you want to save your changes to disk. Even after you save, a backup of your original image is just a click away.
Keep your online photos up-to-date
Crop a little from a photo here, add some shadow there, and then just watch your photo edits automatically sync to your online Picasa Web Albums.
Share with a click
Picasa works seamlessly with Picasa Web Albums to help you quickly share online photo galleries with friends, family, and the world. With 1GB of free storage, album privacy settings to suit all needs, and the ability to upload and download at any size (including print-friendly originals), Picasa Web Albums makes it easy for others to enjoy your best photos, too.
