I don't claim to have any legal expertise but here's what the Picasa EULA says: "You acknowledge that Google, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and/or third parties own all right, title and interest in and to the Picasa Software, portions thereof, and any software or other materials (not including user photos or message text) provided through or in conjunction with the Picasa Software, including without limitation all intellectual property rights." So it appears that they can't use your photos or text without permission. Seems straightforward to me. -- Phil Swango 307 Aliso Dr SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 505-262-4085
