Gallery Review

Ok, So I’ve decided that I like Gallery. It does just about everything I could want, all really nicely. It’s nice to be able to change things from the web, rather than hacking on the little configuration files that were everywhere in MiG. Don’t get me wrong, I really liked MiG for what it did. I just want something more. One feature that I would like (that will be in Gallery 2) is the ability to have real thumbnails for movies. The little movie icon is a bit too cheesy for me. But it’s still better than the movie hacks I had in MiG.

And the iPhoto integration is just slick enough to be useful. It could be much more useful, and definitely could do with some more error reporting, but all in all I was very impressed with the whole thing.

Still working on integrating into the entire look and feel of my web site. I have some ideas on how to do this, and a little test showed that it is going to be possible. I just have to finish the article for ClusterWorld first. Damn priorities.
