Is there a way to import albums from other people's web sits? A few of my friends run gallery and we'd like to share some of the albums. Re-adding all the pictures is a waste of time.

thanks

I managed to do this by adding new pictures and instead of browsing for pictures you choose the web web page which contains the numbers in the single box in the bottom of the window.

Tip: if you want to upload images a lot quicker to your ISP, and your connection with their server is a little slow, try putting your pictures onto a really fast webserver, and then do the above. However, one note. You have to make sure to include a '/' at the end of the URL when you want an entire directory for instance to be uploaded from one server to another. So don't use "www.yourspace.com/pictures" but "www.yourspace.com/pictures/"
