Hello,

I am a novice developer and I was wondering if some of the gurus here
could guide me in the right direction. Essentially I am trying to
write 3rd party app (webapp) which will access picasa albums. This is
complicated by the fact that I will be making these albums available
to certain people only. Alternatively this could be thought of as
sharing with "circles" as well (as these albums now populate the google
+ photos).

So how would these people access the albums? meaning WHICH
authentication tool I would be using? Oauth 2.0? and how would I go
about it (what is the process/logic)

As far as I know I am thinking of it like this:
I am the resource owner of the album and my name is Raz, and I shared
it with another person name Joe so once Joe has my app, should I
direct him to Oauth process/login and once he's logged in
AUTOMATICALLY the "visibility" (as per picasa api) sets itself/grants
Joe access to my album? I am confused because so far I have only seen
examples of resource owner himself accessing private data (this gets
into 3 legged, n legged Oauth process which I do not understand).

Would some one mind helping me out/ explain the proper way to
implement this?
