Are you running x86_64?  There is a post in the picasa group regarding this.
 You have to, for the moment, download wine via yum repo, and I then just
use wine file to run the program in /opt/google/picasa/bin/picasa.exe

You can try and set your c_drive to /opt/google/picasa/3.0/wine/drive_c
also.

This works for me and was the only way I could get it to run in F14 x86_64
