hi, and please forgive the noob questions. am finally about to give up Picasa for paint.net, but can't seem to find a few crucial answers:
1. does paint.net just 'find' all the images on my hard drive, as Picasa did?
2. will paint.net preserve the edits and changes that i made to photos in Picasa? or do i have to specifically export edited files to my hard drive, or what?
3. will paint.net import all the Picasa folders i've made, with their contents? i dont' care about my Picasa ALBUMS, but i have 100s of thousands of images in FOLDERS, all arranged for classes i teach. VERY important that i keep those if possible.
4. if paint.net won't import and preserve the contents of those folders, is there a similar photo editing program that will?
5. also, can we email from, and also upload photos directly to social media from paint.net?
