My question is pretty close to what Max was doing. I'm wanting to use the .NET client library to upload photos & create albums. I basically got started and have been able to query for albums and such in the web albums. It seems I can query these types of things through the PicasaService no problem. However, when I go to upload, I am needing this URI to post to. More specifically, where does this base URI come from? What I'm wanting to do is set the credentials or use an authorization token from the service to get back this base URI. Hopefully I've described what I want well enough for you to understand.

Hi,

Are you having trouble determining the base URI because of not knowing the username, or because of not knowing the name for the album?

The word 'default' can be used in place of the username for posting. For instance, the URL to use for creating a new album would be: http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/api/user/default

The URL to use for posting a photo into an album would be: http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/api/user/default/album/<albumname>

Does this help? Or do you need some additional information?

Thanks, -Ryan
