- There is some problems with the lineup of the thumbnails. They do not match on the top, but are placed in a 'terraced' manner.
- The enlarged photos can only display small, medium or large size, in-between sizes (if I wanted to display something between 'medium' and 'large') are not possible
@Paul: Keep up the great work! Are you expecting any update or is there any workaround in the meantime?
Hi there - thanks for the feedback.
There are a number of features that have been requested over the last year which I would eventually like to incorporate, but I am not sure when I will have the time.
Regarding the notes above about the plugin, I can offer the following considerations:

I believe that this is not an issue that all users of my plugin encounter. Rather, it occurs due to some sort of clash between the plugin and css/html from the site or other plugins. I might try iteratively disabling/reenabling other plugins and see if you can track things down. Otherwise, firebug is great for debugging css/html issues (and you can now get it for Chrome as well).

Unfortunately, a very hard limitation is in displaying only the sizes that Flickr provides on the server. It would be possible, I suppose, to hack something in that allowed you to add height and width attributes to the image popup. However, the actual larger sized image would still be downloaded.
Thanks for your feedback. I hope you can get the css problem sorted out!
I especially like the Lightbox Slide Gallery with its flickr-like style, also for integrated picasa galleries. Of course, the gallery overview could be improved by not relying on the simple view with the blue background...
But more importantly, I am missing the picture captions (comments)... Any updates expected?
Some views do support captions but not all. There is a comments addon but does not support the comments from picasaweb, this might be a good addon on for a future release. Updates are expected but I don't think it will be released this year, hopefully as early as 1st qtr 2010. It is a major release with a lot more core functionality like search, paging and image size all in the core so not for each individual addon. Also each addon can be used on every level in the gallery(ie gallery album photo stage). Thanks for the review. Kind Regards Alex Jonk
