How do you integrate Picasa into android gallery. I am new to android and don't know how to set this up.
Note: I looked into my google account sync settings on the transformer and I did not see an option to sync photos or picasa...
Yaay, by removing and re adding the account, it reflected the new changes and finally allowed me to upload my picasa albums

Try justpictures app.
This syncs with several online photo databases including picasa and in mind looks and works better.

If I understood your question correctly and you wanna sync your Facebook friend profile pictures with your contact pictures on your phone, I personally use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.syncme.syncmeapp and find it quite good, it does what it's supposed to.

Seeing as the storage space on the Moto G is so limited, I'm wondering if there is a way to keep all of the camera pictures in the cloud only. I tried deleting some from the gallery but they disappeared from the cloud as well. Do any of you guys have a solution for this?

What i do is that i "share" them to gdrive, once they finish upload i delete them from my gallery. The pictures on drive won't delete by doing that.
I'm not currently running my Moto G, but this sounds like something that might be achieved with FolderSync. It's possible to set up one-way sync, then just delete the local copy.
You can also store them to Dropbox, Flickr, or one of the other photo storage apps.

I use the Google+ auto upload feature. Simple.

Yes but then if you delete them from the phone they get deleted from the cloud as well.

No they don't. I do it every day. Once they are auto uploaded you end up with a local copy on your phone and a new version in Google+.

Well I am finding Google+ to be more cumbersome compared to just manually uploading to Google drive every so often. I like how I can create folders on google drive. I'm actually going to resize all the photos in my entire library so that I effectively get unlimited Google drive storage, plus the files will be easier to download.

You can organise Google+ photos into albums. But your Drive folders should show up in Google+ and the Photos app so it's win-win.

This. After losing family pics to stolen phones and bad wipes. G+ photos was a life saver
So I discovered a great Windows application called "FastStone" photo resizer. Here is what I did with it:
1. I did a search for *.jpg in my photos folder (I had a lot of folders unorganized, about 80gb worth over the past 10+ years).
2. I copied and pasted all of those jpeg files into a new folder I created called "Photos to be resized for google drive".
3. I ran FastStone photo resizer and set the options so that it would rename all of the photos by date, and also resize them all so that their longest side was 2048 pixels. I left the jpeg quality at 90%.
4. I grouped the photos into folders by year.
5. I put everything into my google drive folder.
Now I have over 80gb of photos in my google drive folder and still have all of my space unused because the longest side of the photos never exceeds 2048 pixels!
Thanks everyone for your input. I'm really enjoying google drive and the moto g. 8gb is more than adequate with all this cloud storage.
Unfortunately I have to update this because the photos have to be on google+. If you leave them on google drive then they count toward your quota.
You can have the 'photos' app set to auto upload, which I initially thought would be good until I also found out it uploads all your videos too with no way to tell it to ignore certain directories, so if you store any videos on board that might be a problem.
I hate having to delete pics on my phone twice. Once in the gallery and once in the "photos" app. Is there anyone out there who can fix this?

The best way to do this is through the picasa tool app on the Google store. I know its goofy as crap and it bothered me for the longest time.
The photos are on your Google pictures cloud deal. The gallery just connects to the Google cloud for those.

I can't seem to get my Google photos to show in my gallery. Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it? I really don't wanna have to switch back and forth looking for a photo. I've synced my Google account and checked the option to show photos in gallery but they won't show up.
