Anyone in the new picasa google test?

[episodic]

Picasa Albulms has went live. It seems it is invite only. I figured some lucky AT'rs had some invites to get rid of.

(yes I'd love one)

[KillyKillall]

Yep, I can see that I'm glad I didn't pay the 25 for flicker, I'll be paying 25 for this when I need the extra space.

Can you guys tell me if there is any problem going direct to the image on this address?

Cut & paste or drag & drop works, but clicking on it does not.

Yup. Pretty neat stuff.

holy JEEZ!

amateur pr0n sharing at a whole new level!!!!

 

[episodic]

How can they tell you drag and drop a link vs. clicking on it????

 

[randomlinh]

well shiat, i just paid for a flickr pro account.. and uploaded about 80% of my pictures (gotta wait till next month, reached limit). altho, i'd like to use it myself before ditching flickr... it does have such a nice userbase as well as flickr leech, which I love.

 

[MisterJackson]

Huh, I almost deleted that email when it came in earlier today. Guess I'll check it out!

Referrer address, I think.

 

[KeithTalent]

This is fantastic, thanks OP for bringing it to my attention :thumbsup:

 

[neutralizer]

Woot. I got an invite finally. Anyone else get one?

 

[randomlinh]

i'm disappointed w/ the test so far. yes, I know it's a test... but
1) can't delete names I create for the addresss (or I just haven't looked hard enough)
2) currently a 6GB limit on the paid account... too small to use it for archiving my pictures and as a backup.
3) no sub folders/albums. a huge thing about picasa in general I don't like.
4) keywords are not transfered.. at least so far. like how flickr treats ITPC keywords as tags.
5) did I miss searching?

things I like
1) use w/ picasa (minus the whole sub folders thing)
2) overall layout/browsing


Sticking with flickr for now... I'm curious as to what yahoo photo's is all about... why not just use flickr.
