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.

Motto

"I love to photograph landscapes. Beautiful, raw, monumental... There's only one problem. They are all out there somewhere. You have to go to them, but I'm too lazy. Therefore I  photograph beautiful women. They come to me themselves."

I don't recollect if it is an quotation or it is mine thoughts but I like it ;-)

"Uwielbiam fotografować krajobrazy. Piękne, surowe, monumentalne... Jest tylko jeden problem. Wszystkie one gdzieś tam są. Trzeba do nich pójść, a ja jestem zbyt leniwy. Dlatego fotografuję piękne kobiety. One same do mnie przychodzą."

Nie pmiętam czy to cytat i ktoś już to powiedział czy to moja myśl ale lubię to  ;-)
