Picasa Photo Program – Edit Screen
Picasa has 4 different screens. The Library (Main) Screen, The Edit Screen, The Collage Screen and the Import Screen. The Main Screen is for scanning and organizing your photos. The Edit Screen allows you to edit your photos very easily. It offers most of the things most people want to do with their photos. It always keeps a copy of the original photo.
Picasa Edit Screen
Note you can get to the edit screen by double clicking on a photo or by right clicking and selecting “View and Edit” from the popup menu. The Edit Screen will open and show the photo in a larger size. Note there are arrows above the photo which allow you to scroll forward and back through the photos in that folder. On the left you can select from a group of editing features. If you click on I’m Feeling Lucky it will automatically adjust the color and exposure.
On the left there are 3 tabs for the editing features. The Basic Fixes allow you to Crop, Automatically adjust Color and Contrast, Straighten and add Fill Light. These work very intuitively and cover most of the simple edits needed for adjusting your photos.
