*>On my near-term todo list is to re-write that little image handler to

*>Template Toolkit for much greater flexibility.  People keep wanting
*>"next 5"/"next 20"/"all" buttons, and the current code is sideways

*>plugin to provide the data, then people can use it inside their own
*>Template-based websites with ease.

One of its most attractive features is that it's simple and easy to use so
if you do rewrite it keep that in mind :) HTML::Template is a lot more
simple and easy to use than TT2. 

*>There's apparently a Slashcode plugin (also Template-based) that is
*>already similar.  I haven't seen it yet.

All the overhead of Slash is silly if all you want is a nice little photo
album. Slash, like GD, is not for the undetermined. But yes, there is a
plug-in but it isn't in the Slash distribution yes.

*>And in spite of your spite (:-), thanks for the links.

:) I tried very hard to find something else around the net written using
mostly perl or better that I liked better but failed. Simple is good,
especially when you have 500+ digital photos that really don't require any
more trimming to add to the visual soup.
