Pete, thanks for your reply.
I've done some more tests, and results are interesting
I've checked my not public gallery and it really showed me
that
there's a new private album named like my blog where I
posted an image
to.
The album cover was marked with the blogger logo. Ok, I see
now that
it really uses PWA for storing images.
But PWA is used in some more close manner. Because when I
switched to
my secondary google account, successfully uploaded a new
photo to a
blog, and came to PWA, PWA brought me to a TOS agreement
page. So I
consider my picasaweb account, that had already stored some
images,
wasn't set up completely. I consider this way a bit more
handy than
requiring users to setup their PWA accounts.
So is there a way to upload to the PWA in the same manner,
so PWA
isn't required to be set up and albums would be
automatically be
marked as dedicated to blogger? Or... when such API is going
to be
bublished? If it's not too much time, I could rather
wait...
