Try it, it's free...
First of all, there should be an option where you could change the "Album" default text and not by editing the code. Also there is no way you can arrange the order of the albums (!) (you can arrange the photos only). You cannot even choose a custom dimension for the thumbnail generated picture and you get different sizes on the thumbnails. Another flaw is that if the image has very large resolution and you click on it the lightbox mode messes everything up (there should be a limit or a customized dimention for the appearance of the lightbox). Last but not least, this is not totally free - it is Adware - you cannot remove the logo of the authors from the component (There is no option for removing it).
We just implement Albums support, as Admiror Gallery Community requested. We planning to implement these features for Albums, just didn't found a time to implement it. Some of next releases will have all this supported.
AG is only an engine for rendering images as gallery. Any library like Slimbox, Fancybox, Lightbox can be easely implemented. We don't provide support nor maintain libraries which are not ours.
Brand "AdmirorGallery" is copyrighted, but scripts and extensions are free and open source. If someone doesn't want our signature to be shown on a page, there is a parametar for disable it.
Easy to use (though needs some minutes to master)
Wide range of parameters
Excellent image manager with descriptions editor
Possibility to add more templates and popups
Cons : Still need to add {AdmirorGallery}imagefolder{/AdmirorGallery} to the article, a button with a dropdown list would helped greatly.
This is really interesting idea! I'll talk with Vasiljevski about it, but I like this idea very much. Thanks...
It is exactly what we were looking for, you just install the plugin, do some small config, less than 2 minutes and move to your articles to place the folder codes & roots, so easy and so simple, a special thanks to the developers of this plugin to deliver it to us and 'FOR FREE'.
A small remark though, not a big issue but if this could be sort out, it will be even like heaven on earth, since our folders contain photos of different size, we setup the maximum width to 175 and maximum height to 100.
As a result, the images display perfectly but they are not align (centered) vertically
Once again thank you very much guys for this perfect tool, really recommended.
Thank You for great review. This kind of gestures encourage us to continue with development.
I invite You to join us on AG Community Forum to see what we can done with vertical alignment of images, but I'm convinced that we can do something about it ;-)
Love the themes! Decided to use the 'Artistic' version!
Could not get images to load in light box though, don't know why, probably some issue on my end.
Thanks a lot!
* "Full Gallery" theme, which presents the picture with a panel beneath with numbered buttons for each picture in the gallery
* "New" pictures: If a picture has been recently (as defined by the user) added to the directory a little banner with the word "New" is displayed in the upper left corner
* There are some other themes which some users might find useful
There are, however, some problems with the plugin. Some of these are not unique to this plugin:
* There is no way to dynamicaly resize the full image to fit a normal screen. Images needed to be resized ahead of time or they might not be completely visible (if they are too big for the screen).
* The "New" banners do not move with the pictures when the scrolling up and down through the thumbnails.
* Pictures must be in a subdirectory of /images/stories, this is not a preference that can be changed. The gallery can be several levels down, although this is not mentioned in the documentation.
With a few fixes and additional features this could be a very useful plugin.
It is very easy to set up and I don't think creating an image gallery can get any easier than with this plugin.
I am using SEF URLs in my website, and there were no issues of any kind. The image gallery worked out of the box.
Thanks a lot for contributing to Joomla community.

It only has one limit which is that I have to mandatory place every gallery to the images/stories/ folder. I will use this plugin for creating galleries and to show single pictures as well. This mess up the way I organize my galleries folders but not a big deal! THIS PLUGIN REMAIN VERY SIMPLE TO USE AND IT WORKS AND THAT'S GREAT!
