I have been working on a shell script to get an album of picasa to be 'postable' in most forums applications (bbcode). so far i can post all the pictures but it seems to be getting only the original size pics even throug i am graping for thumbs.

here is what i have till now.

cat testme.html | grep -i --color jpg | gnused -e 's/\<media/\n\<media/ g' | grep thumb | awk '{print $2}' | gnused -e s/url\=\'/\[img\]/g -e 's/JPG/JPG\[\/img\]\n/g' -e 's/jpg/jpg\[\/img\]\n/g' | grep -E '^\ [img' | sort | uniq

where testme.html is the out put of:

curl
http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base/user/orvtech/albumid/5048270890409477969?kind=photo

I will keep looking into this and keep you guys updated on this
