A very interesting site, indeed, with a lot of good pictures, but many more not so good. It always amazes me the lack of editing some people do before they post their pictures on-line There are so many tools available to them through a large number of photo software programs that would allow them to enhance their photos, direct the focus to the main element in the picture, penetrate the dark shadows, delete the blurry, deep-six the extraneous, and so on, and so on - and yet, for some reason, people do not take advantage of these capabilities. And so you usually have to sort through a large number of rocks before you find a diamond.
I also find it interesting that anyone who wants to can go in and e-mail one of these photo's to anyone else. There were definitely some pictures in the Kuaui Honeymoon album that I was looking at that I would not want e-mailed to strangers if they had been my photos.
The sole tag on the photo I sent was "Hawaii". I doubt that I will continue to use this application. I am not terribly interested in stanger's photos. But you never can tell, and it is nice to know how to access the Albums.
Actually I had never heard of Picasa before. My friends and I usually upload our photos to the Kodak Gallery on-line, which allows us to view and purchase copies of each other's photos if we wish, but the access to these photos is limited to the people that have been approved by the person who uploaded the photos. That concept is much more comfortable to my way of thinking.
