Fonts for Picasa

does anyone else use picasa, lve had it for years on my old computer and there was a huge selection of fonts on there, lve now downloaded the latest version onto my laptop and theres only a small selection and they are not that great with not much difference between them, and while the old ones were really nice, these are really plain, is it possible to download more fonts and use them with picasa? thanks for any help

    cant say i have ever use picasa, but if it a program and uses the system fonts then you can use any font you download and install on your PC.

    Try searching for free fonts, place like dafont, 1001 free fonts are good for free fonts

    It's not Picasa that's the problem, it's a lack of fonts installed on your new laptop!
    If you open your word processing software, the same issue will arise.
    The fonts don't 'go to Picasa'. The different programs use a common font library.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Yes it is, although it does more than just manage photos.
