Hi PJ,

To get a PicasaEntry corresponding to a particular photo entry:

String photoUrl = "http://picasaweb.google.com/data/entry/api/user/ userID/album/albumName/photoid/1234567890"; PicasaEntry photoEntry = (PicasaEntry) service.Get(photoUrl);

However, if you want to get previous and next links inside of an album, you could just do an album query with max-results=1:

Now the feed will contain self, previous, and next links and a single photo entry.

Hope this helps!

Cheers, -Jeff

Ryan,

I am trying to develop a photo gallery in .NET using Picasa API. I have 3 pages - first one shows the list of albums, second shows the list of photos in an album (the album name is carried to the next page via a querystring) and the third page displays the photo clicked in page two. This is pretty much similar functionality seen in Picasa Albums on Google.

In the third page, I have the album name and photo id via querystrings. How do I retrieve a single photo by Album name (AlbumAccessor.Name) and Photo Id (PhotoAccessor.Id)? Right now, the only way I see is to lookup PhotoAccessor for each entry, then try to find a match to the photo id in querystring. Is there an easy way to this? I am unnecessarily hitting the server for each photo and trying to match it. Also, do I need to calculate the Previous and Next images manually or is there a property in one of the classes which has this information?

Thanks for any help.- Hide quoted text -
