Any substitutes for Picasa?

[Regis]

I am trying to organize the pictures on my wife's 'puter (Win98SE) and
I checked out Picasa. It looked good and more importantly, easy to
use. But it doesn't work with her OS.

Could anyone suggest another program which might fit the bill? She is
no geek, so simplicity would be a must. Many thanks.

Don't know why; Picasa 2.0 works fine on my Win98SE setup.

I use and like FotoAlbum. Note: it has a good help file:

Program: FotoAlbum
Author: FotoTime
W: LFW (last freeware version)
Ware: v 3.4.1

You can still download the Win 9x version:

This is the latest Win 9x release.

Downloaded this and installed it. It seems to be a good choice. Many
thanks to the group for your suggestions.

Picajet is easily my FAV. You will even find the free version better
than Picasa for general organizing (it's very user-friendly and
non-obtrusive).

But at a first reading of the feature list, there seem to be quite a
lot of important facilities not included in the free version?
