How to remove Red-eye in Picasa
http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/picasa/ht/redeye.htm http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/picasa/ht/redeye.htm
Both pieces of software can remove redeye. For Picasa the instructions boil down to "Click the Fix Red-eye button" whereas Photoshop involves layers, Gaussian blur, saturation, eye droppers.
Which would you say is more accessible for someone maintaining a photo album? Photoshop has more features, but Picasa is more useful to me (in a certain context, obviously.)

- codingsewer 16y agoI like the new focus on providing tools that do a simple task as simply as possible. Sometimes I do need the fine controls provided by complex UI's but most of the time I just need a tool I can hand to my technology-phobic mother-in-law so she can use it to shrink a 10 megapixel camera image down to something she can upload to a website with a 1mb upload limit.
- Flemlord 16y agoThose Photoshop instructions are for older versions of Photoshop. In later versions, there is a "remove redeye" tool that seems to be much easier to use than Picasa's: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-7601a.html http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b...
- modernerd 16y agoI don't see that this marks a difference between 'what software does' and 'what people do'. Picasa and Photoshop both remove redeye ergo people remove redeye in both apps. The original post seemed to be saying 'it's not the features, it's how usable they are', to which I agree wholeheartedly. I just felt that the clever title was a confusing way of saying 'usability trumps features'. Furthermore, I'd suggest that the iPad is what makes GarageBand so usable and compelling an experience for audio newbies; it's not purely down to the software (although it's certainly excellent). My friend's kids love djay for iPad, for example, but they think my physical decks are 'lame'.
