Hi all,

To address the issue with image URLs containing Google Account
usernames (http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/detail?id=757)
we have changed the syntax of image URLs provided by the API to
obfuscate this information.

What this means:

The URLs provided inside of <gphoto:thumbnail>, <media:thumbnail>,
<icon>, and <media:content> will change to not contain a username. If
your program is written correctly and simply uses these URLs to
retrieve photos or embed the links into the webpage, this change will
not affect you.

Similarly, if you have existing image URLs that you had previously
retrieved from the API that are embedded in HTML or stored somewhere,
they will continue to work.

The only way this change will affect you is if your program is relying
on the structure of the image URL or is trying to process the owner's
username out of it.

Cheers,
-Jeff
