Notice how the pictures posted have been dark and sucked out of all the colour? Well welcome to a new feature of Picassa!
I'm a heavy user of Picassa, but only the web album hosting capabilities. For this trip I decided to use it for importing and posting pics as well. I usually use Adode Lightroom on a different computer and post to Picassa directly. Well I don't have a license for our netbook and it didn't make sense to buy an extra $300 license for my $400 netbook.
Well, to my surprise in London, I found out that Picassa renders and interprets the RAW files funny. It desaturates the color wheel to a point and underexposes them by at least -2.0. They look fine in a different viewer, but when they get synched to Picassa they are lifeless.
So stay tuned for some real photos once I get home and pump them through LR!
