Description
Hello, are there plans to port this module over to the next Drupal version? Also, is there a way to control how much every user is uploading and can users choose the level of privacy who can view their pictures (i.e. public, registered, buddies, nobody)?

#1
Once Gallerix gets to 1.2, it will be ported over to D6, so in other words, expect to see a D6 version sometime after the official D6 is released.
There is no quota system for Gallerix, but this could be a useful feature. If there is enough demand, it'll be added to 1.2 (currently, 1.1 is in a beta testing phase).
Finally, yes, privacy settings work with Gallerix, however, it's left up to the other modules. That is, use any of the many node access modules available to restrict your users from viewing each album node. Then activate the Secure Mode in the settings page. This will make sure users can't view photos from other albums by altering the GET requests, or the URL.
Hope this answers your questions,
Silvio

Subscribing and throwing my support in for a 6.x port.

Waiting for 6.x support too. It will be nice.

Just to update, although I will port the module to Drupal 6, I'm waiting for the moment when D6 truly becomes useful. As of right now, lack of Views and CCK support prevents Drupal 6 from achieving widespread use. In my opinion, it's still in "beta" till CCK and Views are released.

Can anyone help me with a module that allows this optional "Private" type of access control?
Also, I want to have a gallerix gallery created automatically when a user registers, with 1 public and 1 private gallery which the user can select who to give access to, how would be the best way to achieve this?

Use the "Content Access" module combined with the "ACL" module to achieve the latter part.
