on stock gallery I didn't see this folder but on ics gallery I see these albums that I am not able to delete. I am searching with rootexplorer the folder to put .nomedia file but I didn't found them. I think that these files are related to google plus account.
Could you help me?

That is Picasa pictures sync. To disable, go to Settings->Accounts&Sync->(Enable auto-sync at the top if disabled or you won't be able to uncheck it)->Google->Disable Picture Picasa Sync.
Go back and uncheck Auto-Sync if needed.
If you want to stop seeing them in the Gallery, go to Settings->Apps->Gallery->Delete Data
If needed, you can also go to SdCard->Android->Data and delete the 2 folders containing 3dgallery (com.android.3dgallery and another with similar name).
I just did it before writing it for you

Have you done all the previous steps about disabling Google Picasa Sync and deleting Gallery data in Settings?

not sure but these are pictures from Picassa. i dont want to have ti on mobile.
So i cant delete using my mobile? only through PC?
Do you have Picasa picture syncing setup? Go to Settings > Accounts and Sync > Your Google Account. Then check whether 'Sync Picasa Web Albums' is ticked.
yes i have unchecked now. but how do i delete? even if i delte it comes back
If the option is unchecked the Picasa Albums should disappear. I've just tested it with my Picasa account and deleting the pictures on the phone works. Check to see your Picasa Albums account allow deletion of pictures.

Can you find the folder where those photos are? If you can see it using a file manager, create a file inside that folder and name it .nomedia
Disable Instant Upload in your Google+ settings. Or under Settings > Accounts and sync, IIRC
Seriously, don't people read anymore? G+ prompted if you wanted to enable Instant Upload, and even gave a short description of it.

Go to settings-manage apps - all- scroll all the way to the bottom it should be there then say enable.

I got a Galaxy S3 (International Edition) just yesterday
I enabled it to pull stuff from my google accounts, but then when I'm going to open the contacts, I see a bunch of my gmail contacts
How can I remove those from the phone? Selecting to display 'only contacts with phones' seems to fix it, but the email contacts are still available to be seen if one goes to settings and sets to display all contacts again
The same happens with the gallery application, it has like one album for each image I've ever published in Google+, I can set it to display only images from the phone, but then this is not a permanent setting, everytime I exit the Gallery app and re-enter it, it will display all the images from G+ (and I've heard that it will scan the microSD at launch for images, so it will become a clutter of every possible image it can find in the SD)
I have now disabled the sync of google contacts / g+ stuff to the phone, from settings -> accounts and sync -> uncheck sync google photos/google+/picasa web albums/contacts, so it doesn't pull down new stuff anymore, but the old stuff is still there
Is there any way to remove that?
Is there a good gallery app that will not scan the whole SD for media, nor will pull stuff from picasa/google+?
Thanks!
quick pic is the gallery app for you, you can select which folders to see, or just long press a folder and hit exclude

I'm also using quick pic and happy with it. Simple but does the work better then stock gallery app.

Now just delete local files and you should be fine.
If you have a lot of them I would suggest to use File Browser such as ASTRO.
there are some folders in my gallery that i cannot open nor delete and it shows that there are no pics in them but still take up like 83 mb. This started happening the first time i connected my phone to the computer and when i reconnect it, the folders dissapear until i take a pictur then all three folders reappear. here is what it looks like
Those are shared folders from other devices connected to the same wifi router.
Also, Phil Dunphy rules!

Access your Gmail account from your PC (or even the browser on the desktop settings). Go into settings and disable or delete Picasa from there.
