PictoBrowser Plugin
I created my first WordPress plugin. It can show Picasa and Flickr galleries with the help of PictoBrowser in WordPress.
At first an example of a gallery from flickr:
To display a gallery you just need to have both user id & album id

How to retrieve the needed ids and insert an album??
Flickr:
- Visit an album on flickr you want publish in your blog, e.g. http://www.flickr.com/photos/rougerouge/sets/872426/
- you can retrieve username (rougerouge) and album id (872426) from this link, but you need to convert the username into a user id
- this is done by http://idgettr.com/ (in this case the user id is 90537551@N00)
- click on the icon, paste the ids and insert the gallery
Picasa:
- Visit an album on picasa you want publish in your blog, e.g. http://picasaweb.google.com/ksandrmusic/uaprsK
- you can retrieve user id (ksandrmusic) and album name (uaprsK) from this link, but you need to convert the album name into a album id
- this is done if you take a look on the rss feed link, it is valid on the right side on the picasa album page, e.g. http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base/user/ksandrmusic/albumid/5320841682690406545?alt=rss&kind=photo&hl=de so the album id is 5320841682690406545
- click on the icon, paste the ids and insert the gallery
