Fast Gallery Feature Request: some way of navigating the albums / folders

Project:Fast Gallery
Version:6.x-1.x-dev
Component:Code
Category:feature request
Priority:normal

Issue Summary

I like this module a lot already, but one feature would really improve usability: navigation.
Since I am not a coder I don't know the possibilities, I understand the module is quite different from others in that it does not use nodes.
Some ideas:
- control to go one folder up (for hierarchical folders)
- controls for previous - next album (while viewing the thumbs of an album)
- perhaps integrate it somehow with menu/node system, so we can keep the right menu item active when viewing albums.

I have no idea how hard any of these would be to implement, but I'd like to hear your thoughts.

the breadcrumb already takes care of hierarchical navigation, going up or down folder levels ... were you looking for something different?

next album and previous album would def be nice features to have, although i'm not too sure on the best interface atm.

Hmm, for me the breadcrumb always just says "Home" which links to the main page.

it's been awhile since i've contributed to this project, but iirc the Fast Gallery's "breadcrumb" is different than the Drupal breadcrumb. reasoning being, the gallery navigation is kinda separate from the main site's navigation. not sure how this is in the newer versions, as i was happy keeping an older version.

Ah i see, I hid the gallery's breadcrumb with css at first because i thought it was redundant. My mistake.
