Thanks gjr, I was confused because when you go into the album page it shows the thumbnail on the right side and the "sized" image on the left side. It looks like it is calls the slideshow function when you open the album.php, but just not playing it. I thought that was as far as it went, but like you said, when you click on the image details it then calls the image.php. I have entered the function call in the image.php and it does work now, but I don't see my users clicking on the image details alot, because they will see a sized image within the album and will have no need to click the image details.
If anyone else has any ideas on how to get the shutterfly plugin to export the full size image from the album.php it would be greatly appreciated. I have looked at the code and can not figure it out.
