Thanks for the help. I have things working a bit better now - at least I can create an album.

On to my next question - I'm getting an exception thrown when I attempt to upload a photo using the proper Insert method:

returnedPhoto = service.Insert(uri, fs, GetMediaString(), this.paths[x]) as PhotoEntry;

Exception: Unable to write data to the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

My authentication is this (as I believe this could be related to my issues): service.setUserCredentials("mylo...@email.com", "mysupersecretpassword");

I have gotten one other exception to throw that basically just says: Forbidden. Here's one more exception that I'm seeing every so often: The underlying connection was closed: A connection that was expected to be kept alive was closed by the server.

Last question - how can one specify privacy when creating an album/ uploading photos?
