Picasa Web albums from Google

Through your already established Google account, you can set up Picasa Web albums. You can have multiple albums, and for each, you can decide whether to make it public (visible to anyone) or whether to keep it unlisted and just send an email to selected people with a link to view it. Web albums are totally online - nothing to download to your computer and both Mac and Windows compatible - you upload your photos, but after that you can access your online albums from anywhere you have Internet access. Picasa Web Album Help gives you an idea of what you can do with it.

Another fun thing I've played with is Picasa from Google. This is a Windows-compatible program you can download on your computer to manage and manipulate the photos stored on your computer. Picasa Help gives you an idea of what you can do with this program including image manipulation (crop or adjust red eye, color, brightness, tint, etc.). Another cool feature is the ability to create collages and movies. I created a couple of collages to illustrate partnership projects and partnership programs.
