Yay! I also have come across a plugin called <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/popeye/" rel="nofollow">wp-popeye</a> that can do things like embed a quick "scroll-through" gallery in a page. Not a bad alternative if you need a photo gallery option that is a little more user friendly for non-geek clients. Hi Melanie,

I visited the plugin’s page on Wordpress and they’ve given it the “green light” saying that it does work with 3.0. Yay! I also have come across a plugin called wp-popeye that can do things like embed a quick “scroll-through” gallery in a page. Not a bad alternative if you need a photo gallery option that is a little more user friendly for non-geek clients.

I have activated and de-activated NextGen Gallery. I love the plugin's utility but I ended up deactivating it one time in search of a plugin that was killing my theme. I don't think NextGen was it, but I never re-activated it even though I really thought it was cool. (Btw, the few galleries I had made in NextGen were still available even after deactivation.) I happened up on your post because I was thinking about giving NextGen another try. It seems like such a beloved plugin, do you know if its features are going to be incorporated into WP 3.0?

I've played around with these options and it seems that the gallery's "page link to" function allows you to link a gallery displayed as part of an album to the page that the gallery has been placed in. I have tried linking an album to it's own page, but the album itself did not link, just the gallery thumbnail displayed as part of the album and that would only link to the page selected for the gallery, not the page I selected for the album. There is probably a configuration of albums and galleries where this would come in handy though I haven't come across it yet. Hi Mindy,
