does anyone know if theres any better ways of building the albums into the main menu other then custom URLs?? it seems only the gallery root gets a 'page', is there anyway to make each album have a page?

each item in gallery2 has a unique id be it a photo, thumb, resize, user, module, theme....
so in the case of my gallery, my albums are easily addressable via their ids:
Images|Video|Audio

But you can also create special pages to host just those albums & give many unique faces to your gallery.

ya i guess this could be more a wordpress thing...ive used the WPG2 integration plugin so all is fine there, its just easier to build a menu with pages, and if i wante a menu for G2 in wordpress i have to use specific uRL to build a menu...just thought there might be some way or ideas to make pages...somehow, not having a clear idea yet for that.

For some type of auto menu generation, its fairly easy to write a script to do it.
I wrote one to generate the proper html for the jquery tree menu plugin which you can see in use here.
and also an xml script for a flash menu here in the lite blue band
both using the G2 API
