quick question, then background:

question: what is the best way to modify the main (first) 'gallery' item on the main page. Can i redirect this link to a static home page in the place of the home page for the gallery? Any way that I can change the redirect based on the user logged on? Or perhaps get rid of the 1st link (main) altogether and only allow breadcrumbs to the sub-albums which the user has permission to?

background:

due to the tips from other folks I've gotten g2 pretty close to where I want it. All of my albums are nested under a hidden main album. This will enable me to send short url links to separate albums to folks without them browing thru the other photos. Only drawback right now is that I still have 'gallery' stuck at the first part of the breadcrumb. clicking on it does not allow them to view anything.. but just looks pretty unattractive.

keep up the good work all. thanks for the tips.
mike.

make a local layouts/matrix/templates/pathbar.tpl that omits the first item in the breadcrumb. see smarty.php.net for docs, or i can post the details later.
