I recently went through this myself.
Here is what I did to get it working:
1) I followed the Andrew Stone article except I left out the code that
dealt specifically with the functionality of his plugin. For example I
left out the doExport, scriptCommand, downloadLatest, and the
AppleScript stuff.
2) Be sure to create the ExportPluginBoxProtocol and link it up in
Interface Builder. This is mentioned at the end of the article.
3) What isn't in the article and what wasn't apparent to me, having
never written a Plugin before. You need to make sure that you set the
Principal Class and Main Nib File properties for your target build.
Without these set iPhoto will not "know" which class to instantiate as
your principal class and it won't "know" which Nib file to load.
Once I had these down my plugin showed up in the export tab view.
Hope this helps.
Console is your friend. If there isn't something right with your plugin
iPhoto should write something to the console about it.

Hi list,
I'm looking for some *working* sample code for a iPhoto plugin. I've
tried to implement the iPhoto to PhotoToWeb by Andrew Stone
(<http://www.stone.com/The_Cocoa_Files/Writing_PlugIns.html>) without
success. (my plugin isnt even called when iPhoto starts...)
I also found iphoto2weblog by Eric Sigler
(<http://esigler.2nw.net/software/
iphoto2weblog_merging_content_management_systems>), who should have
released the code, but I couldnt find it. I contacted Eric Sigler, but
got no answer yet.
Any hints where I should look? Anyone got some code to share?
Thanks,
Stephan
