I am in the process of moving all of my files to a new PC and I had about 2-3 hundred pictures to move. I needed a program to do this fast and easily (and free). My new pc had adope photoshop album starter on it and it was terrible. So I went to google and found Picasa2. It is actually made by google. I was only going to use it for my old pictures but then I tried to upload my new pictures from my camera and it was so easy I decided to keep it. It actually put my new pictures in a new folder labled with when and whare I took them. This is great for unorganized people.

I have just downloaded this program, and you're right, it looks just great. I plan to purchase a scanner in the near future and scan in the hundreds of photos that my wife and I have taken over the years. I was looking for a program that would let me add comments (dates, names, etc.), and this is exactly what I needed.

Thank you very much for bringing this to our attention.

how is the resources usage?

They used to charge for this application. Google bought it and now it's free.

google's getting crazy big

I'm waiting for their OS. /chuckle

I wouldn't be suprised

The resourse usage seems to be fine. I am using a P4 processor with 512mb ram and had no problems.

glad to hear that... hope it will run smoothly on my system too..

800MHz AMD Athlon, 256MB RAM, Windows ME - No issues.

ya... run fine on my system... i like the "lighting" effect...
