Just notice a problem when embedding images from PICASA into any forum or blog.

Sometimes the LINK seem to disappear and the image is not there. But the link always work when connected to your album. For example it works in my Internet Explorer but will not work in my Firefox browser, and will not work for other users.

I googled on it and could not find any valid answers other than share your album. But I found something that fixes it.

PICASA seems to resize the image for public viewing, and then changes the URL of it.

Your original size may be 1024, but Picasa made it 800, so the absolute URL will change.

PICASA names places the images into distinct folders according to the size (folder s800 or s1024)

Example:

Image 800 pixels (resized by Picasa, seem everyone can see it)

http://lh3.ggpht.com/_uZtarXFEArk/SeO1Qc4i5QI/AAAAAAAABAw/-a...

Image 1024 pixels (sometimes only me can view it)

http://lh3.ggpht.com/_uZtarXFEArk/SeO1Qc4i5QI/AAAAAAAABAw/-a...

hope this help !!

Interesting. And good example posted. Something to definitely take note of.
