Howto to list photos and videos from Your Picasa Web Albums or Google+ that are over a specified width, height or duration

Here is a method to list photos and videos from Your Picasa Web Albums or Google+ that are over a specified width, height or duration - to save a free space (1GB) if You don't have paid account:

1. First install Python 2.7.3 for Windows (or use your favourite *nix box) from here:
http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.3/python-2.7.3.msi

2. Then get this script from müzso page (see bottom):
google_photos_over_limit.py
and save it to c:\python27\

3. Run it in cmd box using Your G+ user id for example like this: Start->Run: cmd

4. Go to this directory so enter:
c:>cd c:\python27

5. Run script (substitute ididid with Your real G+ 21 digit user id):
c:\Python27>python.exe google_photos_over_limit.py ididid >list.txt

6. Wait until finished and then You have all information in list.txt file

7. Now You can re-upload above photos in smaller dimension (max 2048x2048) and delete that big ones or edit them in-place and resize using Picasa Web Albums and Picnic Creative Kit accessible in ,,Action'' menu.
