Persnickety Picasa

The tags that were assigned to the picture I sent to Library Lady were:  owls, cake and math.  Yes, I managed to find something of interest to me (math and owls) and to Betty (cake).

I'm not comfortable posting photos on the Internet even though I did experiment by embedding a slide show below using Picasa Web Albums.  I had a nasty experience last year when downloading Picasa 3 to my computer.  (In all fairness, it was my own fault for not reading ALL the instructions CAREFULLY.)

I do like looking at some of the pictures in Picasa, but I can also find them simply by searching Google Images.  (Picasa is a Google product so the public pictures appear in both Google Images and Picasa, although GI gives tons more to choose from.)

  3. Hi Craftyone,

    I was trying to describe how I accomplished this but decided to instead provide the link to the instructions that I followed--they explain the steps more concisely than I could! Click HERE.

    I'll keep watching your blog as I can't wait to see your slideshow!

  4. Is that your home, Melissa!? BEAUTIFUL.

    I heart your bird house... Sigh...

  5. It will always be 'home' but I don't live there now. I'll tell my mom and dad you like their place.

    There used to be a bird house 'house' to go with the bird house 'barn.' It got hit one too many times by a soccer ball.

  6. I have computer technology envy Melissa. That's a great slide show, and what a beautiful home.

    Thanks for your advise in regards to Picasa and reading the help section. There is so much to learn that I get overwhelmed and start "playing"...which might be to my detriment. It would be a great workshop for you to teach?

    Carol :-))

  7. Ohmygoodness... Did I just notice the bird house barn matches the real live barn?

    If so, please tell me the bird house house matched the real live house?!
