This is an excellent adition to any web site. Easy to dowload, Easy to install, Easy To Use.

Well done on a great component.
I use this for a client's online portfolio and it works well and is very user-friendly.

However, we had an issue with the Photographer's name not displaying (which was vital). Although we got around it, support seemed to give up on me, which was a bit disappointing.

If you want a basic user-friendly, no-frills image gallery component, I'd say use this, if you want something more involved then look on.

Exactly what I needed for one of my clients website. Looking forward to seeing more modules.
This gallery package is definitely worth a try!

The developer is currently very keen on making this a top image gallery solution for joomla. We think he's on the right track. The wbGallery search bot integrates well with the site search making it possible to search/find images based on any keyword included in the image's description. With unlimited categories/sub categories and easy backend admin.; this wbGallery is simple to use, but has some slick features you'll find in more complex gallery solutions. looking forward to v. 1.0.3
I've been searching around for a gallery com that my technically challenged clients could use to manage their weekly photo upload needs... this installed fast and was easy to understand and teach! Love the .zip/gzip upload and the auto thumbnail creation.

The gallery is very easy til install and use.. Very usefull with zip uploading.

One thing missing.. a module which can show the latest uploaded pictures
