Picasa vs iPhoto etc

[Jon]

I had Picasa for a while, never used it, then downloaded Picasa2 the other day because I lost my digicam software.

Its ****ing awesome

Anyone who's got experience with iPhoto and other photo viewing thingy programs in that market bracket, how do you think they all compare? I was under the impression that iPhoto will roxx my soxx when I finally get my Macbook, but I'm not so sure anymore, Picasa2 is great.

I have picasa2...youre right, its good, but its functions are pretty limited

I use GIMPshop for proper editing (since my Photoshop crapped up); Picasa is so nice and smooth for viewing photos and basic rotation and cropping and stuff.
