New Face

I had use Picasa for almost one yea and impression about Picasa was good but there's a catch!
I think picasa had compressed my image and make the picture quality down graded!

Decide to try something new. Currently trying out flickr.com. All image below are using posting from flickr.

No doubt Picasa is easy to work with and lots of its simplicity just make posting picture in blog easier! But with limited picture quality. I beh tahan! Haha!

This post is some shots taken during the 7th day of Chinese New Year during a festival at Penang Heritage Area where they celebrate entire world people birthday which fall on the 7th day during CNY according to the myth of CNY.
