What's happening to Picasa & Picasa Web Albums?. Get started with Picasa & Picasa Web Albums. Heading: Welcome to the Picasa and Picasa Web Albums Help Centre. There is a good overview in the Help web pages about Picasa3 "Sunset" at: I am unsure as to whether Picasa3 "Sunset" (as I call it) is or will be available via Wayback or other public archiving service. For posterity, it would be appreciated if DCF members could mirror that file, so that my site was not the only one. I saved it there for posterity when I suspected that the file would become publicly unavailable (which it has, apparently). That good download link is to a Public file on my personal box.com account. While Google may keep it up after it shuts it down, you may want to have a backup of it at hand should you require one. … I suggest you download Picasa from the official website to have local access to the installer. Re: Picasa to be 'phased out' (File link updated ) The content of this Mini-Review follows on from my comment on DC Forum: The version referred to is the Picasa3 "Sunset" (my name for it) version released by Google at the product end-of-development point. This Mini-Review is more of an anchor-point for people interested in exploring the features/functionality of Picasa3 and wanting to know where the now discontinued software can be downloaded from. It will allow you to view and edit information about your photos, as well as adding new images to your collection, all without having to visit Picasa online.Picasa39-setup - v3.9 Build 141.259 () Sunset version.exe ConclusionĪs Google doesn't currently offer an official app for Picasa on Windows 8, Picasa HD is the next best option for viewing the photos in your Picasa account on a tablet or hybrid device. The majority of the interface is taken up by thumbnails of your images, allowing you to easily see the photos you are working with. It's simple and fuss-free, in order to show your images off to their best advantage. Picasa HD definitely takes a back seat to your photos. If you've got a touchscreen device, you can take advantage of its features to use the famous pinch-to-zoom or swipe though your images. Don't forget that there's also a full screen option, so you can get the most from your screen space. Picasa HD will also allow you to delete photos, access and edit the information attached to images, zoom in on pictures and download them to your PC or tablet. You'll be able to add photos to albums and edit information about them (name, description, date, etc.) all without visiting the web version of Picasa. 
Beyond being "just" a simple photo viewer, Picasa HD will also allow you to create and manage photo albums.
