Introduction to Digital Photography Using Picasa
Albums
In Picasa albums are a collection of photos.
The album can be used to create a collage,screensaver, etc.
An album is just a list of photos that Picasa shows together.
Putting a photo in an album adds it to a list, it does;'t create a copy.
Removing a photo from an album removes it from a list, not your hard drive.
Folders contain the actual files that the albums "point to".

Name your album here.
If all, or most of the pictures are taken in one place, add it to Place Taken
