HI Jeff,

Thank you for your answer. you was right, it didn't work be cause the full resolution pictures.. (some of them are even 1600px...:)

I've tried to put '?imgmax=800' to an end of a link to preview picture. The trouble is that 'lightwindow' script cannot read properly the right dimension of picture and then Lightwindow doesn't work properly. There was only one way how to do it - use the bigthumbnail (xxx/s288/xxx.jpg) and flax it to bigger size. This does not look the best but it was the only way how to get it...

I there any other way how to find direct link to pictures in 800 resolution something like xxx/s800/xxx.jpg?

Thank you for answer in advance.

Hi,

It's not clear to me from the page you linked which photos are having a problem (it also seems to be using some sort of lightbox pop-up that loads the image.)

Can you give me a specific API request (for example, for a particular photo entry) that has the link that doesn't work? I noticed some of the images that were being loaded were bigger than 800pixels, so those cannot be loaded directly in the browser. There's an FAQ item for that:

Hi Jeff,

I have similar and maybe the same problem what Castelino, but it seems to be for another reason then like you said "it was removed"... The photos are all in there and i can access them from another way but if I call them from my web so it return me on all photos this message:

__ 404__________ Not Found The requested URL /jezschaj/RbNLetRdndI/AAAAAAAAAg4/S8LLmMyFFzU/ jezscha_mokro.jpg was not found on this server.

Hi,

To follow up on this, it looks like the original search is hitting some photos that were removed due to Terms of Service violations and the community search feed was just returning bad (stale) results.

Cheers, -Jeff

I'm using GData API for picasa. For one of my search request(the search term was 'Padma Lakshmi)', the thumbnail URL had following value -

http://lh6.ggpht.com/meaganbierk/RuiYTkC_EnI/AAAAAAAALsQ/F_1p7Pzb92E/...

I was not able to view this thumbnail as I was getting '404Not Found' error. The title of this photo was 'Padma+Lakshmi38' and I guess, the '+' is translated into '%2B' is causing the problem. I tried to fix this by replacing %2B by '+' but nothing worked in my favor. I need help to fix this and thanx in advance :-)
