if you just want to work on the picture frame plasmoid, just grab the picture 
frame plasmoid. :) 

you can make it compile in a self-contained manner by adding these lines to 
the top of it's CMakeLists.txt file:

====
find_package(KDE4 REQUIRED)
include (KDE4Defaults)
include(MacroLibrary)

find_package(KDE4Workspace REQUIRED)
====

you can then work against KDE 4.2 and it should all work just fine in trunk 
(well, some exceptions for QGraphicsLayouts which are less buggy in Qt 4.5, 
but the picture frame isn't concerned with those...)

welcome to plasma devel, btw. :)

oh, and Ann-Marie is the person who coordinates development of the picture 
frame. you can find her on irc as annma in #plasma. she's quite helpful, and 
we're all available to answer various questions you might run into.
