It seeks out photos on your local machine and loads them into the app while preserving whatever file structure you've built. I also appreciated the fact that Picasa lets you organize and store your photos however you want on your hard drive. I plugged in an iPhone and a point-and-shoot camera, and both were recognized immediately by Picasa. Privacy and sharing settings can be adjusted for individual photos, collections or for your entire library. The default interface is totally customizable, so if lots of buttons aren't your thing, you can get rid of them. It's elegant, uploading and syncing are a breeze, and sharing options are easy to figure out. There are a few small things missing from the Mac beta, like the webcam capture feature and geotagging - though if your camera adds geotags when you snap the picture (like the iPhone does) that data will be preserved when you import your photos.īy and large, though, there's plenty of reason to get excited about Picasa for the Mac. You can check out our test of the facial-recognition technologies which we previously looked at on Webmonkey. All of the cool extras makes Picasa stand out - the facial-recognition technology, collage-maker and the tool for adding text to your photos - are there as well. All of the most important features are there, such as importing, editing and syncing to the web. Picasa for the Mac is on par with the most recent Picasa 3.0 releases for other platforms, with only a few exceptions.
PICASA FOR MAC OS PLUS
The interface is similar to most other photo library apps, with sliders to control the size of the photos in the display, plus buttons to rotate, tag, share, print and upload photos.
Large libraries scroll and respond quickly. In my tests, I found the Mac client to be extremely fast - faster than iPhoto - and easy to navigate.
