Overview
The jQuery Google+/Picasa Gallery script allows you to show all your Google+/Picasa albums (images) on your website. Please note that this script will only work with albums that are set to public and visible. This script is a pure javascript/jQuery solution and does not require a PHP server.
If you like this script, please take the time to rate it. Thank you!
Other Notes
This script is a rewrite of my jQuery Facebook Gallery scripts and offers the same features as the original but instead of Facebook, it utilized the Google+/Picasa API to retrieve albums and photos.

- LazyLoad Feature for thumbnails (will only load images when thumbnails are in view)
- Social share feature for Facebook, Twitter and Google+
