 Dejan: Thank you. That's the easiest way!  I uninstalled the version
 of Picasa for Linux I'd gotten from the google yum repository,
 installed wine and then I downloaded the M$ Windows version (3.8) of
 Google's Picasa and installed that with Wine.

 Working!   :-)  Strangely, in the Help  About  it shows that it is
 Picasa version 3.8.x for Linux.    :-)

 Thanks to the 3 of you who replied.  Much appreciated! Lanny

I'm just running Piscasa as an app under the Chromium Web Broser. Also
running Picnik the same way. They work well together.
