On one of my WordPress 2.2.1 setups, the falbum_init function returns before creating the cache table, because it does a "user_level" check that fails.
Instead, FAlbum should check for and use the user capability API that's been around since WP 2.0.
My attached patch checks to see whether the user has editor caps (which I think is the same as the user_level of 8).
