Picasa to Windows

Picassa comes in handy not only for browsing, but also for intricate work with photos and other digital images, offering handy tools for improving photos and pictures. You can do some serious editing, such as retouching, tilting and cropping, color correction and adjustment with special effects applied to photos, such as removing the red-eye effect. The edited photo does not replace the original saved in the hidden directory. Editing image files by comparing the original with the result allows you to visually track all the changes you make.

1. You can increase or decrease the sharpness of the photo by setting the slider to the value of this setting.
2. Apply sepia, making the photo visually older, in special reddish-brown tones.
3. Make the photo black and white, which is fashionable.
4. Try making tones warmer for a more natural skin tone.
5. Add some graininess. Many people like this effect and it brings originality to the photo.
6. There are options for adding some tone to an image. By choosing a color palette you like, and then, the slider to adjust the saturation.

9. Brighten up the whiter parts of the picture. Use the slider to change the strength and radius of this setting.
