Now with Facebook support!

We released 2.4.4.0 as a second step toward 2.5. We added the Facebook upload feature. Few words about this:
- the google login handling and upload to Picasa Web Albums had to be changed as well. If you encounter any issues with that, please do not esitate to contact as (email, blog, ...)
- the facebook platform is not as stable as google at the moment. The result is that sometimes some of the pictures will not be uploaded (the tradeoff was to possibly upload duplicates; we decided not to). We are working on this, but cannot promise to get it fixed soon since it depends on a lot of external factors.

Update 20.12: we made some progress on the facebook upload. It seems that we found and handled all special cases. The current small bugfix release (2.4.4.1) includes these bugfixes. Please share your experience with us on facebook (we are the user SoftEx Comp)

We had to post a quick fix with the version 2.4.3.2. The installer script was buggy, it forgot to create a directory and that implied automatically that a lot of the functionality was disabled or not working properly. No issues are encountered on systems where AZImage was only updated, because the directory was already there. Sorry for that, it was really painful for us!

The version 2.4.4.0 is prepared. It will include, as a preview, the upload to Facebook feature. We are looking for volunteers to do the proper testing. As a reward you will get full Licenses for AZImages.

The flickr upload feature is not coming very soon. We wait for more than 2 months to get an application key from Yahoo! to start testing.
