"Picasa Album not found. Check the Album field."

I've tried to load my pictures from Picasa
Upon clicking 'load' button, I kept getting this system message.

"Picasa Album not found. Check the Album field."

I have triple checked My Picasa User name and Picasa Album Name.
They are correct.

However, I kept failing to load the pictures.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks :)

Hi, try to check again the album name (it should not contain #). Try to check if your images are public on Picasa.

Thanks a lot for your help.

I managed to find the problem.

This is my web album url.
http://picasaweb.google.com/iwannagojb/Myalbum#

The Picasa Settings in Phoca should be,
User: iwannagojb
Album Name: Myalbum

Previously, I put "myalbum" because it's "myalbum" when i named it as so.
Picasaweb will auto Cap the first character when populating the url.

Hope this can help other people also.
Thanks.

Watch out !!
Not only the caps is her an issue !

also a minus sign gives some trouble:

My albumname was: "NK_veld_2009-2010" it was changed in the URL to "NK_veld_20092010".
So the minus-sign disapaired.

After changing that in the albumname in Phoca, it was found and introduced !

Hi, the # is not a part of your album name, you should add:
BlueVelvet66
