Folders in Folders with No Images Don't Show in Hierarchy [#311563]

It appears that if a folder is within a folder with no images, it does not show up. For example, I have only 1 folder named "Images" with the images Pic1.jpg, Pic2.jpg, and Pic3.jpg, but "Images" is inside the folder "Subfolder" which is inside the folder "Topfolder", which is inside the gallery path directory. Nothing shows up. There are no other pictures other than those 3 images in the nested "Images" folder.

To clarify, what I want is being able to navigate through the folder hierarchy. Folders that are in folders with no other images are just collected in the base directory of Fast Gallery.

I'll elaborate on my test setup. I have:

BaseDir
     |->Subfolder
          |->Another Folder
               |->Nested Folder
                    |-> Pic1.jpg
                    |-> Pic2.jpg
                    |-> Pic3.jpg

The directory "Nested Folder" shows up in the top level of the hierarchy (i.e. at http://www.mysite.com/fast_gallery). There is no sign of "Another Folder" or "Subfolder" other than in the breadcrumbs, which link to non-functioning pages ("no pictures found" pages).

The problem is that without a photo in the directory, the code doesn't put in a placeholder for that directory, so they are skipped. But they show up in the breadcrumb hierarchy because breadcrumbs are based on the actual paths.

I'm trying to make a fix. Let me know if anybody's interested in knowing how it's going :P.
