Picasa to be 'phased out'

[Deozaan]

I managed to come across 3.9.141 (Build 259) which as far as I can tell is the latest version.

Jotti says it's clean: https://virusscan.jo...lescanjob/l7w48jpqb8

DC won't let me attach a file that large (13MB) so I used 7-Zip to make a split archive in 7MB (max) chunks. One fits in this post, the other will be posted just after this.

Here's part 2 and the rest of the instructions to get these files to work.

The forum wouldn't let me upload them with their original extensions (.001 and .002) so to get the files to work, you have to remove the ".7z" at the end of their filenames in order to extract them properly.

The download source was (on Filehippo.com): Picasa  3.9 B 141.259 - http://filehippo.com/download_picasa/
This "Sunset" version was downloaded by me and saved as:  picasa39-setup - v3.9 Build 141.259 (2015-10-14) Sunset version.exe

The file is apparently still available from there: Picasa  3.9 B 141.259

EDIT 2017-09-12:
The download source at Filehippo.com (above) apparently no longer hosts that Picasa file.
However one can still obtain it from the good link here, and it works just fine: picasa39-setup - v3.9 Build 141.259 (2015-10-14) Sunset version.exe

Thanks. That was a lot easier to get than the one I ended up with. And they have the same MD5 checksum, so it's the same file!

I just edited my post above, thus:
