Development was paused, hope to resume soon.

I have taken a long hiatus from releasing upgrades to the *2Gmail plugins. Motivated by the amount of feedback and emails I have been getting, I hope to change that this year. No promises on dates or features, but I'll try to put out updates that at least fix the main problems folks are having: Contacts not showing up, Aperture 3 incompatibility, etc.

I am considering what to do with the codebase for the plugins going forward -- if you have ideas please contact me.

Your plugin has been really useful to me! I've used it to help quite a few friends and family members, so they can easily share their photos with friends... I'm really happy to hear that you're thinking of continuing development, because then I can continue to recommend it to others. Thank you so much for the great plugin!!!

We were unable to use iPhoto2Gmail. We use our own domain name with gmail via Google Apps. However iPhoto2Gmail is hard coded to only accept gmail.com addresses.

iPhoto2Gmail supports Google Apps domains. The current UI for this is non-obvious and needs improvement.

Hope you'll continue to upgrade iPhoto2gmail. I just upgraded to a new computer with iPhoto '09 and your program seemed to work, though iPhoto shut down right after it sent the photos. So far I have only used it once, so my experience isn't of much help to you, but I just hope that you'll keep going on this project because I love gmail!

I almost switched to Lightroom 3 because of the Gmail plugin support. Please release the Aperture 3 version soon!
