I have wanted a photo gallery for a while in a wiki and in the past
have wondered about using something like Gallery2 and just sharing the
header between boltwire and Gallery2.

Today, I was thinking about a search function I saw in the
documentation that would list pictures according to the directory they
were listed in under "files".  I thought that this would be a neat way
to list the pictures if you could set a template that defined a border
(table) around each picture.  Then each picture would be assigned an
attribute of a certain height and width for uniformity and then set
variables to define the number of pictures displayed on each row or
base the width number on some value determined by the width attribute
used.

If a picture was clicked, it would open in a new window displaying the
full size.  I don't think dynamic resizing or anything like that would
be necessary for simplicity.

Then I wondered it it would be possible to assign "tags" to each
picture by use of something like infotags which would associate text
with an image filename rather than a page filename.

...If anyone else thinks my late night brainstorm merits any further
discussion, I would love to see what might be possible.

I am also very impressed with the infotags plugin used in conjunction
with Linly's wikiblog.  I am planning on switching all blogging
activity to that that method.
