Google Picasa is a popular photo management software for the Windows operating system. Along with Picasa comes the option to upload and maintain photos in Google Picasa Web Albums to share photos privately or publicly online. The Picasa software contains an uploader to make it as comfortable as possible for the user to upload photos to Picasa Web Albums.
Most Picasa Web Albums downloaders allow downloads only for photos from public web albums which is understandable as the user would need to be authenticated before downloading private photos from the photo hosting service.
The following list contains a review of several Google Picasa Web Albums download tools.
Google Picasa Downloader
This downloader is very easy to setup and use. All the user needs to do is to enter a Picasa username into the only form in the interface. The program will then pull all public web albums from that user and display them in list form. Some or all albums can then be selected and downloaded with a click on the download button.
Photo Downloader
Photo Downloader can be used to download photos from Facebook or Picasa Web Albums. The Open Source software has not been updated for a while and some users have reported that it is not working for them anymore. It uses the same way of downloading photos from Picasa as the Google Picasa Downloader.

Picasa Album Downloader
Picasa Downloader is an Open Source program. The difference to the two previous applications is the fact that it will display a thumbnail preview of each web album. It can on the other hand only be used to download one web album at a time.
Down Them All for Firefox
The advantage of using this Firefox add-on is the fact that it is operating system independent. It uses the RSS feed of each Picasa Web Album. All that needs to be done is to display the RSS feed of the web album which can then be downloaded with Down Them all by right-clicking on that page and selecting the Down them All option from the context menu.
