New Features In Picassa 2

This image is generated by Picassa from four pictures I picked from a library. the original photos are not square by Picassa managed to crop a square out of each photo and it looks not bad.

Another good feature is to generate a web page from selected foder. I write code every day but I really hate to write HTML or XML or any web-related code. The page is very simplistic but in a very pleasant way. A photo webpage should not contain anything more eye-catching than the photos themselves, which kind of follows the Google Way.

Picassa can also send selected pictures using Gmail or some other email services. One good thing: it automatically resizes the pictures. Although I am no longer surprised when I open an email sent to me by a friend which contains pictures, 9 out of 10 times the pictures are over 1000 pixes on each side which blows up the entire screen. Yes, some people really do not know that they can resize their pictures!
