![]() ![]() So now that you know, you can download the program and continue to use it to search for, edit, and save images on and offline, but forget about looking for a version 4. However, despite not offering technical support and not receiving any updates, it still works and maintains all the features available in the latest stable version: 3.9.141. And for years it was the company's photo organizer and image cataloger, until Photos was introduced in 2015. ![]() Its history goes back to 2002 when it was developed by Lifescape although the guys at Mountain View purchased its operating license in 2004. Picasa 3.6 for Windows is available for download here.Much before the release of the Google Photos on behalf of the search engine company, the latter also had Picasa. Several other new smaller features, like custom crop presets and the option to preserve a photo's JPEG compression levels when uploading, round out the release. Google says the name tags feature has gotten an update and the automatic face recognition tool can now be configured to scan only selected folders. It's also possible to add contributors to your own albums from the sharing options section, also a new feature, of the upload dialog. When uploading a photo or an album to Picasa Web Albums you will see the option to “Collaborate to a friend's album.” Selecting it will allow you to see the albums you have permission to add photos to. With the amount of photos people usually take at any event, the feature was great in theory but mostly useless in practice.įinally, with support from the desktop client, the feature is now a real option. However, at the time of launch it was only possible for others than the album's owner to upload the photos from the web interface, which works for a couple of photos but quickly becomes useless as the number of images grows. This was very useful in a lot of cases, allowing users to share photos from an event in one place, for example. ![]() The feature was launched a few months ago making it possible for users to collaborate on albums. Since the easiest way to upload to Picasa Web Albums is using the Picasa software, we're happy to announce that in Picasa 3.6 you can upload photos and videos directly to friends' collaborative albums,” Susanna Leng, software engineer wrote. “In August, 2009, we released collaborative albums for Picasa Web Albums, making it possible for multiple people to add pictures to the same album. Now, with the latest Picasa 3.6 update, the most touted new feature is one which has been online for months now, like the possibility to have multiple users upload to the same photo album. One the most popular such apps, Picasa, is a great photo album manager, but it has always trailed behind the online version in most aspects, obviously, the features which are available in both versions. It makes desktop apps when it absolutely has to, but even then it's visible that they're more of an afterthought. Google doesn't like desktop software, at all. ![]()
