Two things to know

The Picasa software provides a simple way to view, edit, and organize the photos on your computer. As you get started, there are two

things you should always remember:

Picasa does not store the photos on your computer.When you open Picasa, it simply looks at the folders on your computer and displays the photos it finds. It displays the filetypes that you tell it to find, in the folders that you tell it to search.

Your original photos are always preserved.When using editing tools in Picasa, your original files are never touched. The photo edits you make are only viewable in Picasauntil you decide to save your changes. Even then, Picasa creates a new version of the photo with your edits applied, leaving theoriginal file totally preserved.

Add photos to Picasa

Use Picasa to view photos already on your computer, or to import photos from your camera.

Add photos already on your computer

Once you'vedownloaded and installedPicasa, you have total control over the photos that Picasa displays. Picasa shows you the photoand videofile types that you tell it to find, in thefolders that you tell it to search.

ClickTools >Folder Manager to control which folders aredisplayed: ClickTools >Options(PC) or Picasa >Preferences(Mac) tocontrol which file types are displayed

Import new photos

Of course, not all your photos reside on your computer. You can import photos into Picasa from many sources, including cameras,CDs, memory cards, scanners, webcams, and more. Photos you import are saved on your computer and displayed automatically in

Picasa.

Organize your photos

The folder list on the left is the hub for Picasa organization. By scrolling through this list, you can access all

photos displayed by Picasa. To understand Picasa organization, you need to understand the following threecollections:

FoldersFolders in Picasa represent the folders on your computer. Y oucontrol the foldersthat are scanned anddisplayed by Picasa. Changes you make to folders in Picasa affect the corresponding folders on yourcomputer's hard drive. For example, if you delete a photo in a Picasa folder, that photo is also deleted

from the computer. Albums

Unlike folders, albums exist only in Picasa. Albums allow you to create virtual groups of photos takenfrom multiple folders on your computer. Albums display those photos without actually moving the photo

-- it's like a playlist for photos. When you delete or move photos from an album, the original files remainin their original folders on your computer.

PeopleIn this collection, you can organize your photos by what frequently matters most -- the people in them. Picasa uses facialrecognition technology to find and group similar faces together across your entire collection of photos. Byadding name tagstothese groups of faces, new people albums are created. These people albums are just like the albums above: when you move ordelete faces, the original files stay put.

Editing Overview: Resize photos

When you resize a photo in Picasa, you're creating a new copy with an adjusted image resolution (pixel count) and with all photo editsapplied. The original photo on your hard drive is never altered.

You can resize your photos by exporting, emailing, or uploading your photos to Picasa Web Albums.

Resize by exporting

Exporting lets you resize your photos while controlling the JPEG compression (image quality) introduced by your applied photo edits.The result is newly resized copies of your photos, saved to your hard drive. During theexport process, you can adjust both the "ImageSize Options" and the "Image Quality" settings in the "Export to Folder" screen.

When selecting image size, choose the "Resize to" option and adjust the size slider. The number of pixels you select with thisslider determines the length or height of your photo (whichever is longer). The other dimension is determined automatically tomaintain the aspect ratio of the photo.

Select the image quality for your photo using the "Image Quality" drop-down menu:o Automatic: Preserves the original image qualityo Normal: Balances quality and sizeo Maximum: Preserves fine detail for large file sizeso Minimum: Y ields some quality loss for small file sizeso Custom: Lets you to select your own value

Resize by emailing

If you're sending photos by email, you may want to resize them in order to get under the attachment size limitation. To change the sizeof the photos you email from Picasa, follow these steps:
