Conserving space on SSD

I have an SSD as my main drive, which means I don't have huge amounts of space to play with.

My users folder is getting too large as certain progs will write lots of data there (Picasa 3, MS Outlook and iTunes backups). I don't have any way of adjusting where the files are written, so I've tried to use junctions. This meant I was able to store the files \ folders on another drive.

However, the issue arose when I tried to run Picasa or Outlook as they couldn't see the folders on the HDD not the SSD. What have I done wrong?
