I'm using the picasaviewer.js script from pilon.nl to embed a Picasa
gallery in our school website, and I see the same issue. Based on
Brian's work, I found a line in the viewPhotoList() function inside
picasaviewer.js that reads
var thumb = item.media$group.media$thumbnail[0].url;
Right after that, I inserted the following:
// Temporary? fix for Google bug 26-May-2011 ST
if (item.media$group.media$thumbnail[0].width > 160) {
thumb = item.media$group.media$thumbnail[1].url;
}
and now our gallery works again. This should be reasonably robust
unless you're currently actually using thumbnail sizes bigger than 160
(these were not supported when picasaviewer.js first came out, AFAIK).
Thanks Brian
