What have they done to Picasa?
« Thread Started on Mar 15, 2011, 5:42pm »

What on earth has happened to Picasa!

When you click the upload tool, you can no longer add a description or modify the date before the upload.....

Also, i cannot preview thumbnails and delete the ones i don't want before i actually confirm the upload.....

ALSO, the thumbnails have been replaced by larger preview photos AND it takes A LOT longer for photos to upload >:(

How can i get my old style Picasa back........I don't like change >:(

Please help!

Alan ::)

The fleeting hour of life of those who love the hills is quickly spent, but the hills are eternal, always there will be the lonely ridge, the dancing beck, the silent forest, the exhilaration of the summits. These are for the seeking and those who seek and find while there is still time will be blessed both in mind & body. AW- Book 7 The Western Fells.

Between us we can make a change!!!!!

Uploading to Picasa from a folder on my computer kills my internet! It works OK if I do it from within Picasa itself, although this takes an eternity too. But trying direct - hopeless!!!

I normally love Google products and work with them on a daily basis, but Picasa is being a right pain at the moment!

Finally - 1 picture uploaded! Took 4 minutes!! Grrrrrrr.....

I know they've changed it but I'm not having any real problem. I just drag and drop a whole folder - the option is now on the column on the right hand side. Only seems to work using Internet Explorer though, can't do it using Mozilla.
