You certainly have had a long haul. I haven't used Picasa for years. I now use Picmonkey.com Such an easy program to use for mosaics and the basic program, which I use is free. Take care Mary. I hope you are out enjoy your walks very soon.

I am very sad to hear that your physiotherapy treatment was not effective in your post surgery recovery process, but am grateful that your daughter found a doctor that has been able to rectify that in a very short time. Hopefully, you'll be feeling much better soon!<br /><br />Your images are always pure perfection, and obviously not dependent on Picasa or any photo editing program in successfully bringing joy to your readers! It's all YOU! Having said that, it doesn't hurt that your Tingsgrove is so enchanting - I am in love with the photo of the glorious countryside and the wooden fence in the foreground; it's pretty, picturesque and should be painted!<br /><br />With such wonderful creatures both inside your home, (Svetka) and the wild deer and red tailed hawks outside, keeping a watchful eye on their beloved admirer as they check up on you when they fly by, it won't be long before you will be taking those long walks again amid an autumnal landscape, surrounded by the simultaneous energy and serenity that is Tingsgrove.<br /><br />Miss you! <br /><br />Get better, sweet friend.<br /><br />Sending love,<br />PoppyPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2601795050810366857.post-39035525979590945502016-09-16T14:18:54.017-07:002016-09-16T14:18:54.017-07:00Delighted to hear the option worked for you Mary.

Keep on getting better ... I hope the phisiotherapy continues to help. Your pup is adorable.<br /><br />I read where Picassa went out of business, but I am still able to use it -- we download the camera to it and I can still edit and make collages in there. Maybe they forgot to take it away from me. Anyway, being not tech-savy and being lazy, I plan to keep using it until I wake up some morning and find it gone. Then I will cry and learn something new I suppose.

I tried yours suggestion twice before it finally worked and I truly had happy tears pouring down my face...it really is a great program! Thank you so very much!

Take it one day at a time. A long haul, but worth taking extra precautions, I'm sure. Love your daughter's being held captive in the Dr.s office. That would've had me in 'stitches' giggling.<br /><br />And one more thing....the design of the fence is incredible! What a great job.<br /><br />Thank you so much for adding your link this week at I'd Rather B Birdin'.

So nice to see your glorious pics including the adorable Svetka.<br /><br />I am still using Picasa and you can still download the programme (Version 3.9.10.4 and older)from http://www.oldversion.com/windows/picasa/ <br />I would strongly recommend saving the downloaded file (picasa3.9.10.4.exe)to a separate drive just in case you need to reinstall in the future.<br /><br />Best wishes ....

I always keep the database though. Two weeks ago I did just that, as I have upgraded several times over the years and that always helps. I tried 4 times to download Picasa and none of the sites worked. I looked on Google and it shows that Google discontinued it on May 16. I can no longer upload any photos into the program and I am so very heart sick. I have all of my thousands of others that I can view, but I cannot get any new ones into it, as I am unable to download it back into my system. Google was the one that mentioned using Corel. I tried a couple of others, before making the purchase and while it looks good, it is just not like the wonderful way Picasa does things. I cannot see why Google would do something so ridiculous...so many thousands of people use Picasa. I wish I had never uninstalled it, then I might be able to still use it as you are.<br /> <br />Best Regards. <br />MaryMary Howell Cromerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05473298562829352582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2601795050810366857.post-14063434669651259432016-09-10T09:36:43.838-07:002016-09-10T09:36:43.838-07:00Wow!

I hope the new physiotherapist can help your knee problems. What a shame to go through surgery and physio but with poor results! The photos of the deer are beautiful. I love the light in them. I'm still using Google Picasa and am wondering about why you can't anymore. I've taken hundreds of photos this summer and they are all on there plus they are backed up on an external hard drive. I'd hate to lose them but I can also use "photos" on my macbook if it disappears totally. I much prefer the editing in Picasa though! Take care Mary and I really hope you have a lovely fall and can be more pain free and mobile.
