...until they shut off the server that serves you that software, or remove/change features you liked. In the old days, you could save your software somewhere and know you could always use it and it wouldn't change on you.
- wodenokoto 11y agoBy that logic, it is perfectly fine that Google stopped developing Picasa, since the executables are still available somewhere
- verinus 11y agono- you are comparing apple to oranges (use some other figure of speech- I'm no native speaker) yes, it is perfectly ok, that Google discontinued Picasa- I am still using my Installation no, as I would have liked some improvements to it...
