Vadim Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 What do you guys think? I just got a new imac and I'm trying to decide if I should stick with Picasa from the PC or dive into iphoto... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Krause Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Personally I'm a big fan of Picasa however on my MAC, I use iPhotos only because I love iMovie and that's where I build all my family home movies. If my vista box had a great movie maker like iMovie, I would probably just use Google Picasa and sell my MAC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tara Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 I love my iphone but I've never been able to make the jump to the MAC. I guess it's because I use a PC all day at work and honestly, the PC does everything I need it to do. MAC's just seem to expensive for me.

Steve Krause Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Just installed PICASA for my MAC and I have to say....... I really like it. Doesn't mess with the files and it gives you the same if not exactly the same experience. I have to say, GOOGLE is giving APPLE a run for their money on the Photo side.

Guest cellphoneshopper Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 I use both. iPhoto is my primary for all the reasons already listed. It works so well with everything else on mac. I like the ease of a quick (very small) resize in Picasa.. for forums or to send to my cell phone etc. I love my personalized events in iphoto for example I have nearly 100,000 pics.. I have them in by special event or if it's nothing super special i have them in month-year event folders. In Picasa it goes in one date at a time.. annoys me to pieces when I am hunting for something. I used Picasa on my pc along time ago, so as soon as i got my mac i downloaded it. It doesn't get much use.. but I still like knowing it's there in case I want to. I would never be without iPhoto.. it's the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sarah Hastings Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 I think iPhoto is a lot easier to manage and explore for a newbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 I use SnagIt for everything now, unless there is something it can't do. When I need advanced editing I load up photoshop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shockersh Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 I use SnagIt for everything now, unless there is something it can't do. When I need advanced editing I load up photoshop. You use Snagit? Really? It's great for taking screenshots but for a photo album? Really? What do you guys think? I just got a new imac and I'm trying to decide if I should stick with Picasa from the PC or dive into iphoto... Personally, I use both. I use Picasa for all my face tagging and keywording however I use iPhone when I want to do any type of editing and integration with movies. I think they both serve a purpose. I think MrGroove should do a iPhoto Vs. Picasa Howto showdown.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vadim Posted December 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I use SnagIt for everything now, unless there is something it can't do. When I need advanced editing I load up photoshop. BAH - iPhone for the win. It rocks over Picasa now with the latest versions and I would go on record now to say iPhoto facial recognition works even better now than Picasa. Plus, you have the iPhoto and iMovie integration + Apple TV + Airplay = Goodness! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
