Hi Ryan -

Thanks for the response. So we get the user's token using the authentication process. Once they select the album they are interested in we get the photo feed for that album. We then make a request using their feed and their token using the code sample below. We parse the XML and store the Image URL in our database for each element in the RSS feed. When the digital frame requests the photos we pass an array of these image URLs to the digital frame. We periodically go back and check Picasa with the same code to see if there are any changes to the album. We then update our table with the array of Image URLs and pass those to the frame later. This process seems to work sporadically. The same exact code shows the photos sometimes and then those same URLs dont work later and then work again. Very bizzare. Should we not be storing the image URLs?

$token = $MYTOKEN; $rssFeed= $RSSFEED; $PicasaAlbums = curl_init();

curl_setopt($PicasaAlbums, CURLOPT_URL, $rssFeed); curl_setopt($PicasaAlbums, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($PicasaAlbums, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,
array('Authorization: AuthSub token="' . $token . '"')); $result = curl_exec($PicasaAlbums);

curl_close($PicasaAlbums);

$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($result);

foreach ($xml->entry as $OneImage) { $URL = $OneImage->content["src"]; storeImageURL($URL); }
