I got notice today that the desktop program Picasa will not longer be supported but worse then that the Picasa web albums will go away as well. For me this is a potential disaster. Every photo I have posted on garden RR websites is from a Picasa web album photo. I have hundreds of albums (some are even not RR related… ) that I share with others daily. What will happen to my photos on train websites when the web album function is gone?
Plus the desktop program is very useful to me for simple organizing of photos and videos, and simple editing functions when I don’t want or need to use Lightroom level editing. The desk top program is still on my computer and will not go away, but no longer will link to web albums.
First cut poking at the web on this issue did not reveal any suggestions for similiar programs for desktop/laptop that so elegantly linked to web albums.
My photos are now automatically in Google Photos, and a quick look at that shows them there, but only organized by date, album names, etc gone. SO the album “Marty 2013 Friday” is gone replaced with the date of that event when the photos were taken. Disaster.
Any thoughts out there on alternatives?
Thanks
Jerry
