Wow! I've been using it for the past hour or so... and I am impressed. Looks like I have a new piece of software to us regularly... now if only it would post videos to my blogger blog. (Instead I haveto post video the long way... one clik is always nicer).
Extra kudos for the slider on the side... nice GUI addition.
BTW I had to get Hello to do the photoblogging feature... just wondering if anyone uses Hello for anything else?

The "semi-random Collage" feature is a lot more fun than the regular "Contact Sheet" fuction Picassa2 also has.

Damn cool! I'll give it a try tonight.

Wonder how long it will take to index the 20,000-odd photos I have in my machine.....

It took 5mins to index my 7,000+ photos at work (Pentium 4, 3.2GHz, Win XP pro).
