Q: 

Facebook Graph API Question: How can i get permanent permission/access token to display a public photo album on a webpage?

I know it's possible to display public images once I have the access token, but how do I go about getting it? I found the facebook dev docs to be kind've confusing when it comes to extended permissions.

Do i need to somehow register the image gallery/portfolio as an app and have the facebook user who's gallery it is allow it?

Thanks for any help on this!

+2  A: 

If I'm not mistaken you just need offline_access extended permission - then your token will (nearly) never expire

based on http://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/permissions

Thanks for the reply Hurda. From what i just read it seems that i would need to register the galleries i'm building as an app to obtain the access token. I was hoping this would work since my last solution for this problem (Flickr/JSON) ended up being really inconvenient for the client (who's really good at keeping her facebook up to date) and created a ton of extra work for me having to process and upload images to her flickr acct. shoot.

I'ts not clear from your question - You have public gallery as web-application/web-page allready running and tryiing to "push" images on Facebook?for this pourpose you need register a facebook application - to have own secret and and own app ID
