Hi Jeff,
Thanks for the explanation.

The caching so far I did for my web application is that I reserve the image
link (thumbnail and image) on behalf of my user for image gallery view. If
they need to reload the image, they press a 'reload' button.

For that common rule you provide, is that for per user or per application ?
If for application I think that may not be enough if we have a ton of users
base and get very high traffic requests to picasa.

Thanks,

Feris
