Photo Uploads with Platform

Tonight we added a photo upload suite to Platform, which for the first time allows applications to contribute content directly to Facebook.

The suite consists of three new methods:

• photos.addTag
• photos.createAlbum
• photos.upload

These methods will allow the creation of photo exporters and plugins for a wide range of sources, from desktop applications to online photo sharing sites to photo capture devices. All uploaded photos are considered "pending," and must be approved by the user on Facebook before becoming publicly visible.
