At the moment every node displayed in the list has a link that looks like "#0" for the first entry, "#1" for the second etc. It's not the best way to do it with views, because as the view gets a new entry, all the nodes that come after the that new entry change their link to n+1. That makes it difficult to link to a specific entry in the gallery from outside that gallery.
I propose to change the link to "#nid", that way it would have a unique address and makes possible to link to an entry in the gallery from outside. As I understand, the mechanics of it lie in the gallerific js, which makes it harder to customize. Nevertheless, if someone comes up with a working solution, I am willing to pay 100 euro for it. Not much, I know, but I would need it for my work on a non-profit experimental music label site, so I don't have the funds..
The 'slider' module uses this kind of linking, though it uses node referefence instead of views to get the content.

as the maintainer i would support a solution to this that would override the behavior in jquery.galleriffic.js and not hack it.

i'm postponing for now.

the href link is set below, so a similar function could take the nid instead of 'gallery.offset+1.'

187         this.$thumbsContainer.find('ul.thumbs > li').each(function(i) {
188           var $li = $(this);
189           var $aThumb = $li.find('a.thumb');
190           var hash = gallery.offset+i;
191 
192           gallery.data.push({
193             title:$aThumb.attr('title'),
194             slideUrl:$aThumb.attr('href'),
195             caption:$li.find('.caption').remove(),
196             hash:hash
197           });
198 
199           // Setup history
200           $aThumb.attr('rel', 'history');
201           $aThumb.attr('href', '#'+hash);
202           $aThumb.click(function(e) {
203             clickHandler(e, gallery, this);
204           });
205         });
206         return this;
207       },

I have setup this module to accept images from multiple nodes to create a gallery from multiple nodes or to attach itself to only one node. If an image is setup to accept images from only one node then this would break it since they would all have the same nid. Thus I am closing this. If someone can think of a way that that wouldn't break the display of images from only one node AND work for images from multiple nodes I would accept a patch.
