An Issue With Picasa

JLOG has posted information on a problem with losing face tagging info on backups.
Its explained  here at  http://www.jgen.ws/jlog/backup/picasa-backup. The face recognition feature is a lot of fun but can be time consuming (program  Id'd 11,000 faces {mostly my grandkids}) and I would have not been a happy camper if I'd lost all that info. Another thing I noticed is that captions don't appear any where except on Picasa.  It seems no "free" photo image program can do every thing. I still prefer Faststone for general viewing and quick resizing.

"God Bless and God Speed"

We just returned tonight from a visit with our son-in-law Mike before he leaves for the Persian Gulf next week. He's a Lt.Commander in the Naval Reserve and has been called up for an 8 month tour.We'll be helping my daughter 3 or 4 days a week with our grandkids, but it's going to be hard for all of them. Mike is very "hands on" with the kids, sometimes coaching  3 teams for baseball or basketball. We all will miss "Coach Mike".  We pray for his safe and speedy return.

Wordless Wednesday- Thank You
