More than one slideshow/album in the Photo section?

I've got an embedded Picasa slideshow working great (12 pictures, one for each player), but once the season begins I'd like to have different albums for each game. Is there a way to put more than one Picasa album or slideshow in the Photo section? I don't think it would be good to have just one big slideshow/album with hundreds of pictures.
Thanks!

iscore team site photo page only let's you embed one alternate provide at a time..
It would be up to picasa to create folders and sub folders.. does picasa allow nesting of folders/ albums? (I have used mobile me and it does not have nesting of folders/albums (wish it did)) .
Perhaps a expert user of picasa can provide some picasa how to.

I believe the Bears team site (find it in the gallery) has like six slideshows on their photo page, so clearly it can be done. I have not tried it myself. When I got around to it, I was going to grab the Picasa embed code and paste it into a simple text editor like notepad, then I was going to grab the embed code from the next slideshow and paste that right below the previous code in my text editor. Then, I was going to copy the whole thing into my team site and see what happened.
If you try it before me, let me know how it works out

You can do a View Source on the Bears page to see what he did. He actually just did several <embed...> tags in a row. He even included some text where we suggest people just put the <embed...>. So he got creative and realized anything you put in there as long as it contains <embed...> will just be stuck on the page.

Thanks guys...it worked. I added the <embed> code for another slideshow right after the first one and the two showed up right next to each other, just like on the Bears' sight.
Awesome!

Thanks FTM, for the specifics.. And source peak tip...
Good luck promark..
Will have to check that out when on a desktop, that may also work for mobile me which does not allow sub folders/album..will have to try that sometime..
