Weird, I didn't get James' original post, anyway I've just submitted a 
feature request for my work on the webserver. It's all cosmetic stuff 
really, although I've failed so far to get slimbox to work with the 
library for a more slick image viewer. Have a look here for the tracker 
item 
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1835346&group_id=46652&atid=446898
 
I might post some screenshots to the users list or the website to give 
people an idea of the changes.

John
