Answer by Swati Dubey

It seems like you're asking why you needed to get a software CD to install and use the Picasa app from any Kodak camera manufacturers for Windows 7 on your laptop. Picasa was a popular image organizer and viewer for organizing and editing digital photos, initially developed by Lifescape and later owned by Google. It was often bundled with various cameras as part of software packages to help users manage their photos easily. The use of a software CD was a common practice during the time Windows 7 was popular, as many software applications were distributed via physical media for installation before the prevalence of digital downloads.

To update Picasa from version 3.9.138 to 3.9.141.303, you can follow these steps:

  1. Download the Latest Version: Picasa is no longer officially supported or updated by Google. However, you might find the latest installation files through third-party websites. Be cautious and ensure you download from a reputable source.

  2. Back-Up Your Data: Before updating, make sure to back up your photo library and any important data.

  3. Install the Update: If you find a legitimate source, download the installer for version 3.9.141.303 and run it. This should overwrite your existing installation with the updated version.

  4. Compatibility: Note that since Picasa is no longer supported, there might be compatibility issues with Windows 11. If you encounter problems, consider alternatives like Google Photos or other photo management software.

I'm looking for an alternative to Picasa 3 to use to organize and tag my photo and video files, it needs to support more file types than Picasa. More specifically, it needs to support .flv files. It also needs support for face tagging like Picasa.
If it had the technology found in hulu and I could tag faces in videos that would be even better! It doesn't have to have the web stuff from Picasa.

Well, the most competitive alternative to Picasa 3 is Adobe Premiere Elements. Besides video editing features, this application provides a photo and video organizing option. You will also have the option to tag faces and integrate flv videos. Go to http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere-elements.html for extra details.

You can use a snip tool and then edit in Microsoft Paint if your computer is compatible with the program. You can download Microsoft paint and then use the selector square tool with the lines and then drag he snipped Chinese characters to the page.


If you're interested in adding flash animations then Flash Vortex.com has buttons you can paste the code for the characters right below the images on your web site.


I assume a download is not available for what you're seeking and that SWIX flash editing tool will not do the trick. Other ways to add Chinese characters to avatar is to sign up to a site with animated characters. If you want to add game characters then YO YO Game Maker or SWIX or a flash file extractor site might help. The Stencyl flash file editor is also good for game sprites and after setting up an account you can make a Sprite and then import to the Stencyl website. Flash CS5 is another choice though it may be obsolete by now.
