The plugin kept telling me that my image path was wrong, but I had already verified it to be correct. After a couple hours of looking at code, I found the issue I was having:
DIR = /plugins/content/smoothgallery/
FILE = content_smoothgallery.php
CODE = Line 232
I changed:
if (!file_exists(JPATH_SITE.$path)) {
to
if (!file_exists(JPATH_SITE ."\\". $path)) {
--and that solved the issues completely. It works like a charm now.
Thanks!

It works as stated. The support for Joomla beginners is almost inexistent.
Searching the web I found the following page that will be useful for beginners:

Excellent plugin!
I like them as lightweight as possible and with the right parameters! SmoothGallery turned out to be my choice among many other slideshow plugins.
Tiny bug that should probably corrected:
When logged in through a publisher account (maybe editor as well?), Joomla! uses the domready event that usually triggers the gallery construction. This interferes with the construction and results to a simple list of images without any formatting.
A possible solution (works for me) is to change line 42 in /plugins/content/smoothgallery/smoothgallery.class.php:
$script .= ' }' . "\n" . ' window.onDomReady(startGallery);' . "\n" . '' . "\n";
to:
$script .= ' }' . "\n" . ' window.AddEvent(\'domready\', startGallery());' . "\n" . '' . "\n";
I don't know too much about javascript but this seems to be a more correct way to implement it as it will register the function even if other functions are registered for the domready event.

you have to replace all the mootools.js inclusion
by the standard
JHTML::_('behavior.mootools');
After you won't have anymore conflict problems
:-)

I just made the bot for a friend so If anyone has any changes or fixes for it. just post it at my web site and I'll push it into the code. JS conflicts weren't as important when the original code was made.

Had to make folder permission tweaks and it doesn't like file names uppercase like JPG but it works great! Thanks

Maybe I am biased or lazy, but I have waited for the day when this kind of slide show gallery was updated for Joomla 1.5. I must confess, that I didn't expect to have waited this long, but the developer did an excellent job creating this plugin. It works in a very similar manner to the bot that went with the 1.0 version of Joomla. I couldn't be happier. To whoever did the development work, thank you!

Is impossible to get working a easy way the doc's are poor in description and somehow it will never work is my feeling. Please setup app's only if they have a chance to work, i know nothing is perfect but this is long way from starting. Test your stuff so you can get good reviews.
Going on to the next one

Just cause you suck doesn't mean others do. I've installed it countless times as have others. Maybe you can explain the problems and a solution could be found. It is beta btw.
