I've got an idea, how about integrating the gallery with famous CMS like Joomla and that the gallery and joomla could be using the same database? It would be making a main site and a gallery it would be great for users who want to make awesome combinations to value their gallery

You can share databases now, but should use different prefixes. (I personally think separate, smaller databases are better, but that's my opinion and my not work for you.)

If you mean share logins, you may want to try one of these to see if they meet your needs:
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:Modules:openid
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:Modules:pam
http://codex.gallery2.org/Category:Gallery_3:Modules

If you want G3 content to appear in other places (Joomla or otherwise), check:
http://www.flashyourweb.com/gallery2/embed_samples/g3_photoStream.php
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:Modules:externals

Work was being done on a more "formalized" integration, but I'm not sure where that stands right now; hopefully this helps you accomplish the goal.

And there's also this, but I haven't used it or heard any feedback on it:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jom-comgallery3/

gallery2 and the Joomla/G2 bridge

but if it's just to display gallery3 inside a joomla page, my restful script works well.

Until G3 has an embed API, you can stop asking about any integration.
