Viewing My Photos

It was brought to my attention it's not so easy to navigate through Picasa's albums. There are several ways to look through an album - I've explained them below.

The Slideshow
When you click one of my web album links, you are redirected to that album's homepage. If you look to the bottom and left of the album title, you'll see a button titled Slideshow (see screenshot to the right). This will take you to a slideshow of the album in which you can navigate using the arrows at the bottom of the page or the arrows on your keyboard.

From A Photo
All other ways begin with you clicking on a photo to enlarge it. If you want to view all photos, click on the first photo in the album. In the location of the slideshow button I talked about above is a new button titled Full Screen. Consider this to be the same button - it takes you to the slideshow, beginning with the photo you had pulled up.

But you don't have to go to the slideshow to easily navigate through the albums. When looking at an enlarged photo, you should be able to use your arrow keys on your keyboard to navigate quickly through photos. Otherwise, if you float your mouse to the left or right side of a photo, an arrow appears. Clicking on the left or right arrow will move you to the previous or next photo, respectively.

I hope this clears any issues. Leave comments or contact me if you have additional questions.
