Slideshow revamp

I have uninstalled Picasa on my PC, which was gobbled up by Google some time ago, after Blogger itself was. For me all these things seem so over-featured, but then I am occasionally justified, ancient and old-fashioned. Yesterday I tried to revamp the slideshow in the sidebar with new pics, and this feature uses Picasa. The program immediately uploaded my photos in a way I was not comfortable with and I have spent a good few hours sorting this all out. I am now using the web based version, and have added 30 pictures from Great River to the slideshow on the blog - enjoy!
