 Hi John,

 I seem to remember seeing talk of a plugin for F-Spot for facebook. I just
 had a google around for "fspot facebook" and found a few promising leads. I
 dont use FB myself so I couldnt check any out. It might serve as a better
 alternative to using the browser.

Hi

thank you for your message. I wonder, do you know if there is only
one version on fspot. 



Do you mean the actual application? If so then yes it comes standard 
with the desktop install, you do see upgrades for it every so often


I have tried to use it, but it doesnt seem to do much. At least I
cant get it. It seem to find every picture and open it, it doesnt
do folder, so you have to look. 



Fspot is quite good once you get using it, to add folders you need to 
use the "photo" --> "import" menu, you can import a range of pictures 
or a complete folder. Under the same "photo" menu you have a "export" 
submenu and you can export to sites like picasa and flickr. I use 
picasa and also have used the picasa app for linux which i thought was 
pretty good but then your tied to one site only. I got use to Fspot now.


What are you trying to get working with F-spot?

I managed to find the plugin to add for Facebook, but it is a bit
confusing.


Ive not added any plugins to Fspot, but im sure someone on this 
mailing list has.


Thanks

Mark




Finally worked it out. It wont add an Album/Gallery from the plugin, 
tried everything wont work. Have to do that in Facebook. Finally got the 
plugin to get added to the right bit in FB, so that when you click log 
in, it goes to the right Page. Then found the Album/Gallery I already 
set up, uploaded the pics. Problem is, it then asks to accept them, 
which I did, but it didnt get to the Group, so I had to transfer them 
from my FB page to the group. Have to work out how do I upload to my 
Page now. It wont take me to the FB plugin thing to get it to allow. 
G, very very complicated.

Hi, talk about fspot being complicated, plus it wont add gallery to FB, 
you have to do that yourself and then use the uploader to upload to the 
already added gallery. Not easy. :(

I will give that a try now, see how I get on. My problem is, I have a 
Facebook profile, attached to that is a Group, then I have a Facebook 
Page, all for different things. I know, making things complicatged, but 
I only added them as I got more used to Facebook, and its was too late 
to change everything.

John.

I gave up on both the Java uploader on the FB site and the F-spot
plugin (this one was because I fell out with F-spot - the plugin
itself worked fine!). I now use http://fbuploader.damoxc.net/
