The options are binary, hard drive (with external?) or Desktop, Downloads, and MyPhotos.<br /><br />I will try to go into Tools now and tame this beast. Piknic won't work yet either. I'll have to get the kinks out later. Thanks.CaptiousNuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14440029537418230507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11336670.post-63093668121148687142011-09-17T17:27:43.189-04:002011-09-17T17:27:43.189-04:00same here, i try to use all google(email, photos, ...same here, i try to use all google(email, photos, videos, rss reader etc) for my web needs. Google usually enables "exporting" your data from any of their apps - so you can potentially backup(email, photos etc) anywhere you want. Other vendors (microsoft, apple, etc) dont care about these. This exporting/backup thing is going to be very useful in future...in case world ends (internet or current down for couple days), OR the vendor locks you out for some weird reason. You will atleast have a backup.<br /><br />I use picasa desktop app all the time. By default it will try to search for photos in standard folders ("My Documents" or "My Pictures").<br /><br />Once you start picasa desktop app, in "Tools" menu select "Folder Manager..." . This will let you limit picasa to only the folders you want. It wont scan any other folders after that. <br /><br />I also use picasa for editing, it has basic editing integrated, but i like their "edit in picnic" feature even more. Picnic is bought by google and its an advanced photo editor on cloud (web service)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11336670.post-71401641519032404402011-09-17T11:58:25.913-04:002011-09-17T11:58:25.913-04:00Yes, I've used it to edit photos.

I don't have much opportunity to play with it, but when I need to retouch a photo, it does the job.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01199149396884765930noreply@blogger.com
