:) Picassa is big, it does just install (see link above) and is easy and pleasant to use

Rox and clicking on on the + to get bigger icons is good enough for me :)

and the slideshow in desktop background can be useful . . .

As Lobster said - It is BIG. There is one problem with that BIGness (!) - it builds its thumbnail file in its own space which is your save file. So unless you have a full HD install you better have a big (1GB) save file or not many photos :D - then why would you want Picasa :D
Now has anyone worked how to avoid that problem?
Cheers
