Picasa 3.8
This is a link to a site that provides you with the Picasa 3.8 software. As far as I can see this is for the Windows platform.
You can also see a link further down the page offering a free plug which will let you upload directly to Flickr ( provided you are registered with Flick) from Picasa. First steps first though, set up Picasa get used to it by playing around with it.

Introducing Picasa 3
Here is pretty straightforward tutorial to Picassa. Remember you first have to download the free software from the net. It will then stay on your computer for you to use just like any other software application. When downloading it will ask you to set up Web albums with Picassa. I didn't bother with this but that is up to yourself. I will post the download link as well. Have fun with it, once you get going its a nice easy tool to use.
