====== How to download picasaweb album's photos without picasa ? ======

First, you have to fetch the picasaweb album RSS link (located in the right column). For example:
<code url>
http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base/user/mesher7909/albumid/5482956614732347265?alt=rss&kind=photo&hl=fr
</code>

Then this little command line will download in your current directory all the full size photos of this album:
<code bash>
URL="http://picasaweb.google.com/data/feed/base/user/mesher7909/albumid/5482956614732347265?alt=rss&kind=photo&hl=fr"
curl -s "$URL" \
   | xmlstarlet fo \
   | grep "<enclosure" \
   | sed 's/.*url="\(.*JPG\)".*/\1/gi' \
   | sed 's/\(\/[a-z_\.0-9-]*\)$/\/d\1/gi' \
   | wget -nc -i -
</code>

Needed packages:
<code bash>sudo apt-get install curl xmlstarlet</code>
