Download Picasa 3.9 build 137.69 / 3.9.137.119

Google has released an update to version 3.9 of Picasa. Picasa, which is available for Windows and Mac OS X, makes it easy to manage, edit and put photos online. The program offers options for straightening the horizon, adjusting the contrast and making a crop, among other things. There is also face recognition, which makes it possible, for example, to quickly show all photos that contain a specific person.

New in version 3.9 is, among other things, the possibility to share photos on Google’s social network Google+, where people can also be named directly in the photos. Furthermore, various new edits can be applied to images and it is possible to edit two images simultaneously, side by side. The following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Changes in build 136.17:

• Picasa now includes Google+ Auto Backup for the Desktop.
• Updates to RAW support to include newer cameras.
• Patches to image handling. We would like to thank Hossein Lotfi, Secunia Research, for helping to identify several issues in RAW, TIFF, and JPEG handling.
• Updated file size limits for uploads: 50 MB or 100 MP.
• “Edit in Creative Kit” function has been removed.
