Thanks! Although, because of Jscripts being offline, all my scripts are gone! So it's actually better than this :P

But thanks nonetheless :)

Unrelated to the post actually. Landed on your blog from DesiPundit - you blog design is awesome. Exquisite is the word.

@Phy: Ah! Now that you mention it, I remember that limit. I guess I’ll write out some code to create a database of the Flickr photos URLs, so that when the limit is put in, you don’t lose your pictures.

I guess you’re right! PWA did cross Flickr in that regard. Plus, the 1GB is going to increase (albeit, GMail speed I’m guessing), so everything looks in favour of PWA now! :P That’s good!

@Ava: The only thing I can say is (and I know it won’t help, plus it’s weird coming from me but) “Be Patient!” :P

just a little note here.. the merge has been completed ON PICASA side, not in Blogger side. i read a declaration that a little something more will be added to Blogger side on that respect.

be it a lame link or actual tab into the dashboard that no one knows. i hope it is a tab.. that would be awesome.. even if it only displays a direct link and some stadistics...

Well you know I agree with everything you said, it's the next logical step for Blogger/Google/Picasa Web Albums, and very nice indeed.

I do want to point out something with Flickr though, they do not really offer unlimited storage with only bandwidth restrictions on the upload.

If you upload more than 200 photos at Flickr, you'll get this message
"You've run into one of the limits of a free account. Your free account will only display the most recent 200 photos you've uploaded. All of your photos beyond 200 will remain hidden from view until you either delete newer photos, or upgrade to a Pro account.

None of your photos have been deleted, and if you upgrade, they'll all come back unharmed."

So although the images are still there, and if you have the urls you can still access them, you can't browse them, and that's in effect a 200 image limit.

With all that, Picasa Web Albums has now surpassed Flickr in my opinion. Pity I don't take more photos. :-)
