Hi all,
I was writing an app to check changed image files between my local filesystem and smugmug and noticed the api calls return an MD5 sum. any idea what input is being used to create that md5sum. Of course i can create my own value to compare for future use but want to save processing time since the md5 value for every image is being sent by the api.
Any info is appreciated.

Thanks

    The MD5Sum being returned is the MD5 sum of the original image uploaded to SmugMug, so if you generate the MD5 for a local file you should be able to determine if the file is different to the one on SmugMug.
