DOWNLOAD DOESN'T WORK. RELIES ON MICROSOFT SITE FILES. FILES AREN'T THERE.
Not great.
I don't understand why they give good reviews to this Windows Photo Gallery when it can't even do the basic of the basics, ie: flip a photo!! So many useful features which they were in Picture Manager have disappeared here, apart from some basic filters, the other features are pretty useless - Facebook, YouTube, tags etc....How come Windows Word have more Picture editing options than Photo Gallery!!! Please Microsoft sort it out!
Pros:
Basic filters.
Cons:
Can't flip photos.
Can't "SAVE AS", need to "Make a Copy" and then click several times to "Revert to Original"
Microsoft Word has more pictures tools, these should transferred to PhotoGallery.
Can't see all the pictures in thumbnails, as used to see in Picture ManagerMore
Awful program. I hate it - I download off a SD card - and then can't find the freeken pictures - open Windows live photo gallery they are there - go to FB - wanting to Download a few photos and can't find them.... ridiculous........
windows live photo gallery. I hate it - it is difficult to sort my photos and sometimes you can't find tem - I wish I could go back to XP and photo app... was user friendly - not anymore.... ugh. Pros: nothing. Cons: I don't like the way they sort photos - when on vacation i take a lot of photos - i want them all in one place - i will sort them myself
CAN MY PRESENT VERSION OF WINDOWS PHOTO GALLERY PICTURES BE TRANSPORTED. Some of the controls is missing in my windows photo gallery. If I download a new version, will my photo's be transferred in to it? Cons: The whole set of controls above my photos are missing in this present gallery. If I download a newer version, will photos be automaticially be transferred
@Bluebirdjohn. @Bluebirdjohn. It can be hard to track down older versions of Windows Live Photo Gallery. I wrote an article about it here, maybe it will help. http://features.en.softonic.com/what-happened-to-photo-story. Niamh
DON'T USE THIS PROGRAMME.. TOTAL WASTE OF SPACE. HAD AN AUTO UPDATE! THE PREVIOUS VERSION WAS MUCH BETTER. FASTER AND SIMPLER! WHERE CAN I FIND THE PREVIOUS VERSION (2010) I THINK.
not easy. Can NOT believe you cant crop, or edit photos easily anymore. Now you have to take extra and annoying steps! Pros: NONE. Cons: No more red eye fix, or crop right from photo screen, HORRIBLE!
Exasperating Program!.
WLPG has punishing limitations that require tolerance and a comprehensive understanding of its weaknesses; however WLPG is straightforward in its design and approach making it user friendly overall. The program is really designed for those that are willing to accept the inherent flaws built into the system! Scrolling through multiple photos within a file is sluggish and occasionally unresponsive. WLPG spontaneously deletes photos unchecked for this process making retrieval difficult at times. The photo editing built into WLPG is very rudimentary and not worth the effort.
Taking into consideration that WLPG is a free program that should be all one needs to know to make an informed decision. I use WLPG as a staging area for file transfers to alternative software programs and as a basic backup to those files.
Pros:
None.
Cons:
Program needs restructuring.More
New Windows Photo Gallery. I too am very frustrated with the new versions. Vista was much simpler with far fewer steps. I'm so glad I kept Vista on my desktop. Pros: None. Cons: Everything
Hate it.. I hate using this version,its not user friendly and i often get frustrated with it.the older version was so much better and easier to use.Loved messing about with my photos on older version but hate this one so much i dread having to put my photos on.no fun anymore. Pros: none. Cons: everything
Vista Fix option was better. Picture quality after basic "auto correction" decreases. Vista's "fix" option was too good. Wish i cud install that in my windows 7.
Totally dislike the 2011 Version!. I used to be able to scan multi pics, then cut save as individual files. Have searched high low through the useless icons -and cannot do what was once so quickeasy!!! It shouldn't have to be this HARD!!!!
Windows Live Photo 2011.
Nice to know I am not the only one who is unhappy with this program update. The old one was great! I did the simple edits I wanted and moved on. Now I have to go through the gallery of pictures that I don't need them to organize for me. I don't want to see it linking to every photo on my computer. I hate, hate, hate, 2011 software update and have been busily looking for the older version. I'm told this is like the Mac, well if we wanted Mac style than we'd be using a Mac. If you really feel you want this feature, than re-config the software so it opens files like the older editor and then add an option for your new features to organize, post, tag. I don't use this soft ware for those things, it was always an editor and now the editor has taken a second seat. This way we can use it in the custom we grown to know and love.
Pros:
No pro's, pre 2011 upgrade was a better program.
Cons:
Opens as the main features of this software are tagging, posting or organizing photosm, not the edit feature. Don't want to see the whole history. More
The ver of Windows Photogallery before 2011 was best. Windows Live Photo Gallery, it was a very good program until the 2011 UPDATE. which I upgraded to, and was very sorry that I did since I was not able to find. a copy of the before upgraded program! If you get something good from MS better keep. it and not upgrade. Old Version would remove SHADOWS out of Your Pictures and the New Version is not worth Copying into Your PC.More
It's AWFUL!. Not only is it dreadfully slow, it puts photo's in folders that I don't want them in, it's not user friendly, I DON'T want to tag everybody. In short, I wish I hadn't installed the update... this is awful! How can I go back to the older version?
The New Live Photo Gallery 2011 is the WORST concept ever.
It randomly puts the pics whereever it wants and try to find them. Hate it, hate it, hate it! Is difficult to use. Hides the photos in other folders, by date. I have photos from 2007 in 2011 folder! Why would I look there????? With 3500+ photos, it is a nightmare to try to find a photo, let alone edit it. No way to manually straighten a photo. I can't think of anything good to say about it.
Pros:
None.
Cons:
The entire program!!! The older versions were so easy to use. Could edit post a photo in less than minute. Now takes 5-7 to locate, edit (good luck with that) and post. Why would anyone want to use this ill-conceived program. How can I get the older version back?More
MUCH WORSE THAN PREVIOUS VERSION!.
THE NEW VERSION ABSOLUTELY STINKS. I HATE IT. IT USED TO BE EASY AND FUN TO USE, NOT ANY MORE! WHAT ELSE CAN I SAY, I HATE HAVING TO USE IT. IT IS NOT USER FRIENDLY. WHAT A PAIN. I HAVE TO SEARCH FOR EVERYTHING NOW. SET IN MENUS AND 1000 CHOICES. IT IS NOT WHAT I WANTED. THE PREVIOUS VERSION IS SO MUCH BETTER. HOPE I CAN FIND AND RELOAD THE OLDER VERSION. REALLY FRUSTRATING!!!
Pros:
nothing.
Cons:
everything "more is better" WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!More
A real stinker. In the older version on windows XP I was able to print one photo at a time in the size that I wanted. In the new verwsion on Windows 7, I have to print multiple prints of the same photo. Minimum of 2, 4x6 or larger until I got to the 8x10. I find this version more frustating to use so therefore I don't use it. This is the worst photo program I have ever had. Pros: no pros. Cons: a lot of consMore
Windows live photo gallary 2011. I hate it! I can't edit my pictures like I use to now I have to go and buy a different Program. Especially to get rid of the red eye that my camera misses.
