Hi,
im about to build a new site using gallery....
i have a few questions...

1) better to use gallery 2 or the latest version, 3?

2) i need a gallery as part of an ecommerce solution, basically its selling photos online..... will Gallery work ok for this?

3) does gallery have any 'flash' or not?

1) G3 isn't officially released yet; there is a paypal-compatible module for it but it's still in development. G2 is old, but has good ecommerce modules (an official "cart" module, the "checkout" series of modules, and a connector module for Zencart).
2) G2 works fine for me
3) I think that there are flash-based slide-shows for G2 and G3, otherwise mainly not flash.
