it is NOT automatic. you have to upload your photos to picasa web albums. they give you 1g of free space. on the upper right of every album you have an option to sync to web. if you're signed into your google account, it will upload that album to your web albums. you can also upload single pictures. ALSO you can organize the pictures on the web at picasaweb.google.com
it's very easy, but you do have to upload to the web. this might take a while, depending on how many pics you want to upload.
Actually I think I misunderstood the question at hand. I don't think there is a way to sync pictures you take on your phone with Picasa, you would have to manually do that for each picture taken I believe.
I thought you were asking about syncing pictures from your picasaweb site to the gallery on your phone, which occurs automatically with 2.1. My bad.
Are you asking where to enable/disable the syncing of your existing Picasa albums with your Droid?
Go into settings, accounts & sync, then click on your Google account. One of the options listed will be "Sync Picasa Web Albums". I think it's enabled by default.
If you're asking about something else then just ignore me. ;-)
There are 3 settings under sync,-contacts, gmail, and calendar.I have no option for picasa web albums. Am I missing something?
Sync is enabled-When I got 2.1 nothing from my picasa came over to the gallery. I thought about uninstalling and reinstalling gallery but couldn't do that either. Yes, I tried a hard reboot. Sounds like a trip to the Verizon store is in the future.
