Sorry to go on a tangent, but first thank your for this script and your years of support of gallery.
This is a great script for those on Gallery2, is there any hope of a script to move Gallery 3 users to flickr either through the route you took with G2 or through the API?
I just discovered Gallery is "hibernating" and have spent two hours googling and reading the (locked) forums for a way to migrate G3 to flickr.

Never got an e-mail notification of your comment! Sorry for 1000x delay.

You could easily adapt this to do Gallery 3, just change it to use var/albums/ instead of g2data/albums/ and it should work.
