This is a test

This is a test of the Photos - In - Blogger - Get - Saved - In - Your - Picasa - Web - Album feature. Please DO NOT PANIC. This is only a test.

----------------------------------

• Test, part the first
  Rhubarb used the Blog This! button in Picasa to upload new photo & blog:
  

RESULT: Photo gets added to the "blogger" Web Album named "rhubarb" (the same name as blog is named).

----------------------------------

• Test, part the second
  Rhubarb added a photo to this blog using the "embed" link on a photo already in a Web Album:
  

RESULT: Photo does not get added to any "blogger" Web Album.

----------------------------------

• Test, part the third:
  A photo was added to Rhubarb's profile page HERE.
  

RESULT: The photo shows up in a NEW Web Album named "Blogger Pictures."

----------------------------------

• Test, part the fourth:
  Rhubarb added a "page element" to the blog layout, adding a photo to the sidebar.
  

RESULT: The photo gets added to the "blogger" Web Album named "rhubarb" (the same name as blog is named).

----------------------------------

• Test, part the fifth:
  Rhubarb deleted the photo "page element."
  

RESULT: Not yet determined. As of this posting, the photo that had been added in "Test part fourth" still remains in the "rhubarb" Web Album.

----------------------------------

FINAL TEST RESULT: It would seem that photos added to the actual blog -- that is, as part of the page layout, or part of a blog post -- will get added to a "blogger" Web Album that has the same name as your Blogger Blog's name. And photos added to your Blogger *account* -- such as to your profile page -- will get added to the "blogger" Web Album named "Blogger Pictures." I'm guessing that there are different blogger albums created because a person could have more than one Blogger Blog, so each Blog probably gets its own album with that Blog's name, as well as a separate album for photos that affect your Blogger account in general.

Thus endeth the test. Please resume your normal activities.

Rhubarb's Picasa Tips and Hints

Hey, y'all --

I've rearranged my page of Picasa Tips and Hints, so that there are now separate pages of tips for Picasa/Picasa2, Picasa Web Albums, and Hello (from Picasa). If you haven't taken the time to check it out yet, here's your chance!

Happy Picasa-ing!

Rhubarb is not Onion!

Since this question comes up every so often in the Picasa group, I thought I'd post some PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE that Rhubarb and Onion are two totally different people.

This is Rhubarb:


And this is Onion:

Seeeeeeee? Onion has GREEN eyes! We're TOTALLY not the same!

I hope this has helped to clear up any confusion out there!

PS: I posted this using Picasa's BLOG THIS! button. Is there anything that Picasa can't do? (The answer to that is YES! But those are probably things you shouldn't be doing anyway, so there you have it.)

PPS: You might be thinking this is a Michael/Janet Jackson sort of thing, where they're really the same person because you never see them in the same place at the same time, so here's some more PROOF that Rhubarb and Onion are NOT the same person.
