Is there a gallery module that is working with Drupal 4.5.1? I wouldn't mind paying for it.
I heard it's in the works for 4.6, is that right? When can we expect that? How can I contribute to it?
Thx!

Are you asking about "gallery" or image module? Allthough this: image-4.5.0.tar is far from perfect, it works ok I think. I haven't been able to use imagemagick, but I think that is a shared hosting issue, because I have also tried to install gallery, which requires imagemagick, without success.

I have image.module and it works well for me, but only to post one image at a time. I want to be able to post several images at the same time or censecutively into one node.

I'm looking for information on the gallery.module or the one that is replacing it in Drupal 4.6 if that even exist.

You can do this by going to Administer...images and then choosing the tab for either "directory upload fast" or "directory upload slow". These refer to directories on the local server; I created one at $DOCUMENT_ROOT/import/ just for this purpose.

The direct URL to the upload page is (yoursite)/image/dir_upload/fast, and there is (IMO) pretty decent online help for how it works, including hover-over tips on the links.

Moshe Weitzman is working on a new personal image galleries module to work with the new image module. It will feature multiple upload capability and a simple tag based system for organizing photos ala Flickr and del.icio.us via his new folksonomy module. But it is not done yet, and may not be done for awhile yet before it is. I am helping to sponsor this as well, and if you are interested in helping to pay for this too, contact Moshe and ask him how you can help.

I've sent an Amazon gift certificate to Moshe. You guys, don't be stingy sponsor him as well! The gallery.module is a very important step for Drupal!

I agree it would be nice to have a gallery module. I don't want to have to create a new category every time a user wants to organize their photos (ie: "Summer Vacation '04") and I don't want to give users access to the taxonomy admin screen.

Something as simple as free-edit text box to go along with the taxonomy would even do the trick. The image would be put in the selected category, and then inside that category would be a series of "virtual categories" grouped by the free-edit field.

We had the same thought, and Moshe is working on this problem.
