Back inwards July 2013, I described how many people who started Picasa-web-albums were being immediately re-directed to Google+ photos and what they could to to render to using PWA in 1 lawsuit again without beingness re-directed.
Quite a few things convey changed since as well as thus In particular, Google have:
- Changed their strategy some Google+
- Released Google Photos as well as retired Google+ Photos
- Changed the Picasa-web-albums re-direct to larn to Google Photos instead of Google+ Photos
- Stopped supporting Picasa (announcement)
- Stopped supporting Picasa-web-albums (announcement)
- Released a novel tool called Google Album Archive, which gives y'all access to photos, photo-albums as well as information close photos that y'all created inwards Blogger (and other Google tools) - which isn't available inwards Google Photos.
- Changed the re-direct on Picasa-web-albums, thus that it goes to Google Album Archive instead of to Google Photos.
That is why y'all encounter this:

How to destination Picasa-web-albums from re-directing to Google Album Archive
Bad news: As Google's Album Archive production is turned on some the world, as well as specifically in 1 lawsuit it is turned on for your, in that place is no way to to purpose Picasa-web-albums, without beingness sent to Google Album Archive.Your exclusively selection is to purpose to Google Photos directly, or to endure amongst pictures exclusively through Blogger's post-editor.
Is in that place a occupation amongst using Google Album Archive as well as Google Photos instead of Picasa-web-albums?
There are posts on help-forums etc from people who are unhappy close this change: Picasa-web-albums as well as Picasa-desktop had a publish of features which Google convey but decided non to render inwards Google Photos. These features include:- Making slideshows as well as putting them into blog-posts or websites.
- Embedding Picasa Web albums as well as photos inwards blog-posts or websites.
- Linking to photos, albums, as well as Public Galleries which an URL that contains your usename
- Photo tags, tagging people, likes, +1's, as well as Picasa Web comments.
- Making slideshows.
- Following people based soley on their photograph collection
- Viewing world galleries.
People who used those features didn't desire to lose them, as well as they sure encounter a occupation amongst the changes. Personally, I intend that things are a fiddling to a greater extent than nuanced. There is a lot of special behind what y'all tin as well as cannot practise inwards Album Archive - as well as why sure actions are as well as aren't available. This isn't e'er consistent amongst the documentation - eg the documentation says that nosotros tin delete photos inwards Album Archive, but I've got at to the lowest degree 1 album / photograph amongst no delete icon showing. Other people convey reported that they had albums which aren't showing upwards inwards their Album Archive. Some are unhappy because they cannot practise novel albums, exclusively endure amongst ones that they've already made.
But for all that, I haven't notwithstanding constitute a full show-stopper final result that stops me from using the Google tools to endure amongst images for my blogs. Have you?
