Easily upload iPhoto pics to Picasa Web Albums

Filed under: Photo, Web services, Imaging Tips

If you're an iPhoto user and want an easy way to upload your pictures from iPhoto to Picasa Web Albums (Google Photos), then check out Google's Picasa Web Albums Exporter iPhoto plug-in. The plug-in is available as part of a package from Google's Mac tools site (if you don't use iPhoto, you can use the standalone Web Albums Uploader program to upload your pictures to your Picasa albums). Once installed, open iPhoto and either select an album or specific photos you want to upload. Then click File -> Export and choose the "Picasa Web" tab. The plug-in lets you upload the selected photos to a new album, which it will then create for you with a title and description that you can specify, or to one of your existing albums.

The plug-in makes short work of sharing your iPhoto pictures via your Google account. It even allows you to choose how to scale your photos during the upload (better quality, faster upload, actual size) which is helpful if you're on a slow Internet connection. The plug-in will also add any keywords or descriptions you've added in iPhoto to your Picasa Web Album!
