Google Picasa Web Albums - Allows Users to Post to Drop Box


Allowing staff to directly email your Picasa Web Album with photos of activities.


In your Picasa Web Album administrative area:
  • When logged into Google and navigate to picasaweb.google.com
  • Click on the gear icon/settings icon in the upper right hand corner 
  • Under the General tab 
  • Go to the Upload photos by email
  • Check off the "Allow me to upload photos by email" 
  • Enter a secret word in the space provided
  • You will be provided with an email address to email
  • The photos will be sent to this address and placed in a Drop Box
  • The owner of the picasa web album can then move the photos to specific albums
This feature is a great way for teachers or contributors to email photos of activities.  Then you can embed a picasa web album on a website where you can continually update photos on a frequent basis.



Making it happen..... love it!
