OPEN: Trouble uploading pics from Picasa

[Chris Norton]

Sweet work Jay.  Looks like everything is coming along nicely.

By the way, you can upload pics from Picasa directly to our image gallery; not that you have to or should - just wanted to let you know it's possible.  Navigate to the Projects & Ideas gallery, then click "Add Items", then the "From Picasa 2" tab.

Hey Chris-

Something is not working when I go there to upload.

Sorry Jay.  These are the additional instructions for getting images from Picasa into our gallery:

How to Add Items from Picasa 2

• Step 1: In Picasa, use "Folder/Export as Web Page", chosing XML as format in the dialog box.
• Step 2: Zip the contents of the resulting folder so that the .xml-file is in the root directory of the zip-file
• Step 3: Point the "Import from Picasa" tab of your Gallery's "Add Items" page to the local path of your zip-file and click on "Add Items"

Unfortunately I tried these steps and ran into some errors that I'll have to look into when I get some time later.
