I use picasa web to save my 10000 pictures in full original size:

I just have to pay only 5€ a year google for an extended capacity on my google account.

[...] Even if you have uploaded all your photos to your Web Album, I wouldn’t trust the Web with my originals. They should be on your computer, and backed up to Disk. see past article: Don’t Delete your Original Photos [...]

I agree that Picasa should not be used as sole storage but you can download the originals…

“In both paid and free accounts, the actual resolution of the photo is maintained (even though a smaller resolution photo may be displayed by the web interface), and the original photo can be downloaded.”

Hi, I do love you site so much and the way you have your pictures organized. I have one question I need answered.

Let’s say I have duplicates and want to delete one of them. Meanwhile I have already posted a picture on my blog. If I delete that picture it is taken off my blog then. I have lost more pictures this way and only when they are taken from Picasa.

Would you be kind enough to explain this to me and what happens and what to do about it. I have a mac and wonder if that is the problem ? I really will move them all if you can explain it to me.

Thank you. Connie
