Picassa Viewing

I found a new piece of software online that allows you to open to or more databases of pics. I found it pretty cool has anyone else used similar items ? Picassa as a rule only allows one database but found a free program that allows two or even more. Not sure I can post it here cause its free.
But is this new or did I stumble upon something cool ? Since 2007

I've run across it but never used it. Being that Google makes it, my guess is it is pretty good. As long as they don't orphan it or sell it off (like Sketch Up) it is probably a good choice. I generally don't bother photo organizers, because Windows 7 is pretty good at handling most photos, but I still use Adobe Bridge from time to time - it is still my favorite.

I use ACDSee. I have done for a very long time.

I have always found it does everything I need in that area.

I love Picassa and was well impressed with it, tried ACDsee free one and seemed fast and stuff but preferred Picassa, maybe the paid ACDsee is better with all the added features though. "Women are like tricks by sleight of hand, Which, to admire, we should not understand." WILLIAM CONGREVE

I use ACDSee -as Cap'n.

I do not understand what you mean by "database of pics". All the viewers I use, including ACDSee, can view pics in any number of folders and can store indexing data in any number of databases.

With programs that use databases for indexing/organising, I regularly delete the databases and create new empty ones. Otherwise, databases quickly become huge and corrupt. Hence I find databases of no value whatever in organising or indexing.

I rely on sensible naming of folders in a hierarchy instead. Edited on Sep 05, 2012, 03:13am

Does ACdSee allow slideshows with music? Since 2007

The program is called Multicasa, that allows other databases. The key flaw in Googles Picassa is unlike other programs Picassa only allow you to pick the folder you want .

Let me see if I can explain this, picasa will scan the folders I tell it to and put pictures in neat folders. Problem is family photos, and porn will open the same time as you can only program Picasa to open one time with the settings. What Multicasa does is allow you to make several log on to access pictures perhaps porn, and family and not have them all show up. The program seems ok. I wish Picassa allowed multible databases on its own. As it it ast logon it only allows the choice you made in file manager and thats it. Since 2007

Easy enough to do slideshows.

I haven't tried it with music, but there is nothing stopping you using a media player to cover that aspect, I suppose.

Ah, I see. I had a look at the Multicasa site so I now know what it is doing.

In a Picasa database you create categories of images and you can allocate those categories to any images or folders you wish. So you could have a category for GG and a category for BG etc.

You might have separate category for photos of your family and would rather not have those in the same database.

Multicasa lets you switch between the two or more separate Picasa databases that hold those categories.

Righty ho then. ACDSee has that feature built in.

In ACDSee you can create categories and subcategories and images can be in any number of categories you choose. The categories and pointers to the images within them are stored in a database.

You can browse to any choice of database whenever you wish. ACDSee will open with the last database you used. So, if you were using a porn database, you would switch to a family one before closing ACDSee. Next time, ACDSee would open with the family database.

You can also export a database to a saved database or to a text file and later import from where you saved it.

But I am not sure how any of this keeps your porn away from your family. ACDSee, and presumably Picasa too, allows you to browse to any folder known to the PC, regardless of what category it is in or what database indexes it.

Nobody else will see your porn categories but they can still browse to your porn images if they know where to look.

My own porn is on physically separate hard drives. If I needed to keep it away from family, I could do (if I had a family!). I do not use the category/database for my porn at all though.

ACDSee can create two kinds of slide show:

1) Is just a means of viewing the images in any folder, set of folders, or category, as a sequence on the PC that holds the images, with or without transition effects.

2) Is a compiled executable of the slideshow that contains compressed versions of the images so it can be viewed on a PC that does not hold the actual original images.

You can download a plugin that allows you to build audio into either kind of slideshow. In the version of ACDSee that I use, this plugin was a free addition to the paid software. I do not know if that is the case with the latest version.

I only ever view slideshows of type 1) and I have not downloaded the audio plugin.

I have ACDSee and Adobe products, and never seem to find the one that suits me. I like music with my photos and none of them do it that well, so still in search of one for that . Since 2007
