I love Picasa and I have been relying on Picasa for quick editing and
uploading of many GB of pictures to Shutterfly and Picasa web albums.
(I use my Canon DSLR to take pictures of my kids sports teams, scouts,
family events, and am learning about astrophotography.) Starting about
2-3 weeks ago, each time I try to upload, all I get is a gray screen
with all menu options except help grayed out.

My system is Fedora 10 x86-64.  I have tried both:
   picasa-2.7.3736-15.i386.rpm
   picasa-3.0-current.i386.rpm

I have the same results with both versions.  I can e-mail pictures....
I also made sure that my Linux machine was fully updated.

This seems similar to a report about the 2.x beta in 2006.

Any help would be most appreciated as I have about 10 sets of pictures
that I need to upload - family and friends are asking about my
pics....  I may have to kick the kids off their gaming computer and do
this under Windows.

This computer is my primary home machine, a dual-boot XP/Linux
laptop.  After trying to find a Linux solution, updating to Picasa 3,
etc. on Linux, I booted into XP and tested Picasa 3.0.  I was able to
upload pictures to Shutterfly using Picasa 3.0 + XP, so this is not a
network issue with the home network/router, ISP, etc.

Other feedback for Google:
1) Please put a link on the download page for Picasa to the GPG key
for the RPMs.
2) A link to the LInux Picasa forum on the Picasa help page would be
nice.
3) Some diagnostic message when the display is gray might help
troubleshoot the problem.
