That is a perfectly sensible and correct answer. No better and no worse
than saying that the files are in a particular directory.
Seeing how most people manage files in directories I think it is far
better to have them "in Picassa."
You are just stuck in the over-complicated past.
Isn't the exact location of the photos designated [by the user] in
Preferences? Or, on a Mac, the photos would automatically be stored in
the Pictures folder. On a PC it might default to My Documents. A good
backup program would be set to look for changes, additions, deletions
anyway.
