Picasa Slideshow for Joomla
Add Picasa slideshows to your site using your albums' RSS link.
The available AJAX modules for displaying Picasa albums for some reason were displaying images in low quality, while Picasa's embeddable player was showing them fine.
I decided to use Picasa's flash player, but to simplify adding the album's url to other users, I thought of letting them add the album's RSS link instead (as done on http://www.tools4noobs.com/picasa/).
The difference between the url used in the player and the RSS one is just a tiny part of it: player refers to .../base/..., RSS to .../api/... A simple ereg_replace() did the trick...
You can select between the 5 sizes suggested by Picasa, and add your favourite background (HEX value, no # mark).
This is my first J! extension, hope it may come useful to someone!
