It's great to see Pony Gallery live in Joomla 1.5, the best gallery for 1.0 so far. I wasn't satified with the galleries available for Joomla 1.5, and i was hoping someone gets the PG ML proyect back to life and for the latest J! version, so these are great news. I hope the project keeps updated with new features and switch to a native Joomla 1.5 component. Congratulations to the Joomgallery team!
