Alpine PhotoTile for Google Plus and Picasa free WordPress plugin

Please Note: This plugin is no longer being developed or maintained. If you are a WordPress developer, I encourage you to take this plugin and make it your own. The Alpine PhotoTile for Google Plus (formerly Picasa) is capable of retrieving photos from a particular Google Plus user, a public album, a semi-private album, or a keyword. The photos can be linked to the your Google Plus page, a specific URL, or to a Lighbox slideshow. Also, the Shortcode Generator makes it easy to insert the widget into posts without learning any of the code. This lightweight but powerful widget takes advantage of WordPress’s built in JQuery scripts to create a sleek presentation that I hope you will like. A full description and demonstration is available at the Alpine Press.
