I just installed it and it looks to be real intuitive. (I also tested
singapore and although it looks real nice, (CSS/Templates), playing with
it is a real _pain_ navigation wise.

Is that right? I'm aware of PHP's implied insecurities but most of it is
DUE to PHP programmers's skillsets.

Can you tell me how to put the photos storage location to somewhere
other than the web-root? It's now in /var/www/html/gallery/albums. I
tried to put it into /home/photos (defined in the config.php) but the
images wouldn't show. (upload is OK)

I even tried making a symlink from /var/www/html/gallery/albums to point
to /home/photos, but it didn't work.

I'm not sure what using MySQL's benefit is (other than using it for
login/pass)

Now.. that's a real Cool Feature. I'm sure users will appreciate that.
