Progress:

I have figured out that UserID and AlbumID are some number and not user 
name and folder name.  Which at first try is a bit tricky to understand, 
and also tricky to lookup.  I can see the UserID and the AlbumID in an RSS 
feed link when I choose this option for that album.

I can upload photos now using the simple img/jpeg format (no meta-data) so 
far.  I am getting back an entry result but it appears the Xml is of bad 
form.  Has anyone seen this?  So the return Xml is not valid and can't be 
used.  Is this a bug or am I do something incorrect?

The other progress I should mention is how to generate an Auth Code with 
the Client Login inerface.  This is a fairly straight forward service to 
use, you get back an Auth key in the response body and pass as an 
Authorization header item in your web request like this:

request.Headers.Add("Authorization", "GoogleLogin Auth=DQAAAMQAA....F3rZRsg");


Its a long sucker, and has been trimmed down above, but works!  The Client 
Login interface is a very straightforward HTTP Post to the google client 
authentication service.  More details here:
