Great!!! (and strange restriction) >>... > > This would need to load picture stuff into TW. Not sure about this. > May be the thumbs, with links to the "big" picture. Like I did with > fancybox. ... Yes, yes. [img[url]] or something. Not the actual pic of course. (Just maybe those urls that Picasa provide to individual pics can be fetched?) > > ...

I guess both are desirable even if TW filtering probably makes more sense unless the source gallery is huge and there are time issues or such. Actually, are the tumbs shown when the whole code is done processing or are they spit out (spitted? spitten?) one at the time in the process? I'm asking both from a time perspetive (which clearly is not an issue as far as I can tell but just might be with huge albums) but I'm also asking because if they're spit/en/ed out one at a time then I'm guessing they're easier to wrap up into tiddlers.

No, sorry, I didn't mean a TW to replace those products. I was just ref. to the fact that there is relatively little "about pics and media" in TiddlyVerse relative to how big an issue it is on the general internet. But maybe we already have the tools needed. Except for picasagallery of course ;-) > > ...album ID Note: Above here, I posted some stuff I found on album ID's. This coding is beyond me but I would assume the RSS idea could be viable considering that RSS, if anything, is made to get things 'out'. > have fun! I am! LOL Although I'm a bit frustrated that I can only contribute so marginally. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
