Love this module - when will it be available for 5.1

Great!

And looking a gift horse in the mouth, a few thoughts for your 5.1 implementation:

In 5.1 drupal (core I think) has a really nice image import utility. You can even import a chunk of images and assign them to a specific gallery.

Here's the thing though - it picks them up and creates them in file sort order from the server and then of course the gallery will display these pics in the order of most recent image posted first.

It would be terrific if there were a more intuitive way to sequence the pictures for the flash gallery. Perhaps you offer the option of sequencing based on image title name. Then if necessary the photographer can put a cheesy number at the beginning of the tile. E.g. "1. John eats cake without his hands..."
For what it's worth, a similar feature was requested here: http://drupal.org/node/108788

Also in 5.1, using the import function, the name of the image is name of the file. The person can of course go back and change this name. But if you offer the option to sort by name, then perhaps an option for the the description/title comes from the body of the image node would make sense.

Potential peace offering for my noisy requests:
I MIGHT (I don't want to commit yet my schedule is in flux) have some bandwidth to help create a few help pages for user documentation for the flash gallery. Most drupal modules come with nice readme.text files to tell sys admins how to install. But by now, with all the cool drupal 5.1 enhancements, that's usually cake walk (well except for TinyMCE - still a pain but oh so worth it...). I think what's needed more often is explanations on how to use a module.

If this bandwidth opens up, I'm also willing to help beta test it for you. My laptop is a mac and my drupal is on a hosted envt. using a Linux Box, Apache 1.3.37, PHP 4.4.4, MySql 5.0.27

One more question, what's your estimated timing for having a 5.1 beta available?

Sorry for the caginess on the commit for help. But I'm interviewing for a job at the moment and if I get it - well you know how that goes. If I don't then I'll still be freelancing with Drupal and will be happy to help.

Cheers and again - love this module!

Great!

BTW I got the job :-) But I still want try and help if I can. Feel free to ping me if you want another set of eyes.

Sorry for the delayed response. I've been on vacation and I start training Monday. I will try to work on this in the mornings next week before training classes.

THANKS! and keep posting your patches I will look for the latest.
