The first slide will be a text slide to introduce the slideshow. Select the ‘Movie’ button in the bottom bar of Picasa. This is a filter, the other filter for photographs available is all the pictures that are starred. Click on the icon again to get out of this mode, or click on ‘back to view all’. To the left of the search bar, on the top, click on the face icon. You can view all the photos across all the albums with faces. This is a really interesting feature in Picasa. However, the hosting facility is one of the best free ones around, so this is taking you through some of the interesting stuff you can do with the software. It is a pain to add pictures, the automatic scanning goes haywire on your hard drive (we recommend not setting Picasa 3 loose on your hard drive to scan the folders automatically), and adding folders manually mysteriously fails from time to time. Overall, it is an improvement, with a markedly better upload (a lot less failures), some nifty new features, but a slightly bugging and confusing interface. Some features have been added, and some functions have been changed. Picasa 3 is the latest release of the software from Google, and comes as a much amped up successor to Picasa 2.7.
