TECH Picasa

Picasa automatically brings up the pictures are saved on your computer. In order to work with or edit a picture you simply double click on it. You then have the ability to crop images, use red eye, filter images, or even add text. One of the things i though was interesting was that you could press a button and Picasa would only show you pictures with people's faces.

One feature i thought was really great was the ability to create a collage. For the most part you could only create a collage based on templates they already had in place, however, it is still a great feature, as you can move your pictures around to the carious locations that you want them. In picture pile you can move picture around to any where you want them, however there is no way that i found to bring pictures to the front or back.

Another feature that i thought was cool was was the ability to use your pictures to make a movie. You could add transitions between pictures, add text, and even add audio to the movies. Once your movie is done you can even upload the movie to youtube right from Picasa.

Over all i found Picasa a little difficult to navigate, but once you know what you are doing it is a great site for editing picture and even making fun things with them. Below are the pictures that I edited. The original is first and then the edited one.
