Well, how to rate this, it works nicely for PGV 4.1.6, so for that a 4 star rating, but still no support for 4.2.0+, so it can't get 4 stars. Whoops.

Well, this looks excellent so far. Captcha is needed, use SecurityImages, that works very well.
But a simple, fast installation, no big frills, but it does the job!

Well, the integration between the joomla and coppermine works without a glitch, but integrating the style sheets is complicated when the template in joomla is confusing (replicant for j1.5), but that's hardly the bridge's fault.

Well, considering what I have to use it for (tell my users of changes on the site), this is a huge overkill.
But I really like the interface, and the layout editor.
It takes some time getting used to where things are located, but after a while it comes natural.

The price for the News version is excellent (free), taking this into account makes it unbeatable.

I haven't found a something I'm missing yet.

Only minor snag is that when you update, you have to uninstall the old version, and thus you have to save all the personalized graphics you've placed in the template directory.
