Original post from http://gallery.menalto.com/node/103428 I thought that it might get more exposure here than in the other forum section:

Hi everybody!

I really love menalto gallery and I'm using it since v1.
It provides me with everything, my geek-heart demands: Great organization capabilities, extended item information, user management, ...
...but since I started taking more than snapshots again I wished, it'ld look a bit more fancy and a bit less like a catalogue..

So I started writing a frontend to Gallery3 a few weeks ago: G3FrontendHS (or short: GHS)
It combines the completeness of gallery3 with the fancyness of HighslideJS using the REST API of g3.

Since there is no way to retrieve protected items via REST without downloading them first (which would be a major performance and/or size issue for bigger installations), ghs will only display public viewable items.

It's still at a very early beta stage, but it works for me and for a friend, so now I'm looking for some more beta-testers.. :)

Here's a demo: http://stimpyrama.org/ghs/
..and here's the download: http://stimpyrama.org/blog/39-computer/174-ghs (the site is german, ghs is i18ned and comes with german and english lang-files..)

For the even more bleeding edge, heres a svn-repo: https://www.amb-net.de/svn/pub/webdev/g3frontendhs/

Cheers,
stimpy

Since this is a client please use the other thread for comments/support.
